When you doing a site backup does it backup the PostgreSQL backup as well?
Also, at what filesize do recommend changing from using the confluence on-board automatic backup to a manual process?
Hi @Joshua Kacen ,
Yes, it backups all content into an XML.
Please take a look at Site Backup and Restore
That depends on your instance sizing: spaces count, content count, number of users and groups and also number of add-ons being used. Information can be found under System Information
Atlassian recommends the manual process for production instances.
Just to be clear, it does NOT do a Postgres export/dump, it exports all the data from the database to XML that Jira can read.
Does this XML file enable you to do a complete site restore? Assuming the database has been created in PostgreSQL first.
Yes, it contains everything except the server configuration (the system files in the installation) and the attachments, which need to be backed up from the file system under /<confluence home>/attachments (If you're on Cloud, then they are added to the xml as Edwin mentions)
