Tshepo

Hi, I have managed to export/import backup into my instance and now i want to backup data/subdirectories and dont know how to do this:

- Creating this snapshot (Are we reffering to a normal snapshot)

- a batch script copying the directory can be written

I you can help me on how to do this?

Define what you mean by "snapshot", and maybe "normal snapshot"

Backing up the Jira data directory is a simple task though - it really is "take a copy and put it somewhere else". If your Jira is running though, you may end up with missing data - it's worth thinking about a dynamic incremental backup for larger installations and thinking about whether to exclude the index directory.
