dB backup included in Zipline?

[fahd]

Thanks for creating Zipline, this is exactly what I've been looking
for, especially since I'm on Media Temple (gs)

Was wondering if Zipline 0.4 includes backing up my MySql databses or
if I need to run AutoMySQLBackup in addition?

thanks

Hello Fahd,

Sorry not to get back to you sooner.  I am working on integrating SQL backups into zipline very soon.  I plan on having that in the next release.  I have some reservations about putting them in there because I am worried that it will cause the script the time out if you put too much of a load on it, but you can stage it with multiple scripts.

For the moment, you can use AutoMySQL Backup in addition to zipline.  I have mine set to do the database backups 1 hour before zipline runs.  Let me know if you have any questions on how to set it up and I will be more then happy to answer any questions!

Cheers,

Brett Wilcox
