Dear Rudi,
Why not use Cobalt's own backup tool wherein you can schedule too and at the
same time make it FTP to some other location too. Also Cobalt have some
other third-party packages too viz. Legato & Arkeia File Backup. RAQ4 has
Veritas Netbackup too. You don't even need to backup individual folders/take
postgres dump. All you need is recreate the RAQ and Restore from the backup.
No hassles.
Backing up /etc & pg_dumpall won't recreate the whole site structure and
moreover no data will be backed up that way. So this is not a right way,
just wastage of time.
Cheers
Arminder Singh
