Ce module ne remplace pas une sauvegarde complète et régulière ! En effet, elle ne sauvegarde que les données de la base MongoDB du Synchronizer en l'état. Les fichiers de configuration, les logs, les SLA, les métriques et les données utilisateur ne sont pas traités par ce module.

Pour la gestion des sauvegardes complètes, veuillez-vous référer à Shinken-backup et Shinken-restore, les commandes de sauvegarde et de restauration.

La page Restaurer une sauvegarde automatique de la base de données du Synchronizer explique comment restaurer l'une de ces sauvegardes.
