Hi folks,
One of my clients wants me to delete a lot of old customer accounts from their store. But they asked about keeping a backup copy of the data, in case they want to restore the accounts, use the email addresses for marketing, etc. I know that Miva makes regular backups of the entire store DB. I'm pretty sure they do this every night, but I don't know how long they keep them around.
Also, it recently came to my attention that some types of data that aren't in the DB, such as the privatekeys.dbf file, are not backed up as often. There are other files on the server, in the script or data folders, that have valuable information in them. Is any of this data included in backups?
Basically,I was wondering if I could get a complete description of the backup policy in one place. Which files, and how often?
Thanks --
