  • Our database, which gets mysqldump'd into /var/backups/mysql/
  • The files in /home/deploy/
  • Configuration files in /etc
  • /root/ which contains a few scripts useful for maintaining the server

We snapshot the contents once daily. This backup is encrypted with a GPG key that has been emailed to hello @openhatch.org on Thu, Jan 26.
