Scheduled Backups for Service Desk Appliance

Status: Declined

This would be unique to each environment and would require downtime.

We've documented this process in v8.3.x.

For the embedded PGSQL database, include a (default) option to keep x days of backups on the local appliance, and schedule this during installation. This should be backed up to some default 'backup' folder on the unit, and the scheduled backup should be configured as part of this process.

We can then (using tools like rsync) copy off these backups for further resilience.

The one challenge to overcome is for downtime when this occurs.

This process would need to stop zsd services, stop postgresql services, backup and start both services.

There is a manual process to achieve backups but you must schedule ZSD outage for this to occur.
