[TYPO3-english] Typo3 backup

[De Contardi Riccardo]

A little question about how to backup a Typo3 on linux 

I want to set up a little script to back up my typo3 installation

(I know there's an extension, but I'd prefer to set up a script of my
own)

 

This is my "plan":

-          tar & gz all the source folders (in my case
usr/share/typo3-core/

-          tar & gz all the dummy folders (in my case under
var/lib/typo3-sites/ dummy-4.2.10/

-          dump the DB & tar & gz

 

In order to minimize the weight of zipped files, what could be
neglected?

For example: the folder /var/lib/typo3-sites/dummy-4.2.10/typo3temp/
could be skipped?

 

The files named temp_CACHED_* under

 

/var/lib/typo3-sites/dummy-4.2.10/typo3conf

 

Could be skipped, right?

 

I also found this

p-without-the-heavy-tables/

Some suggestions?

 

Thanks in advance
