Overview
| Excerpt |
|---|
| The Fedora 4 Backup capability allows a user, such as the repository manager, make a REST call to have the repository binaries and metadata exported to the local file system. Inversely, the Restore capability allows a user to make a REST call to have the repository restored from the contents of a previous Backup operation. Further description can be found in ModeShape's documentation. |
| Warning |
|---|
Note: Restoring a backup replaces the repository content with the contents of the backup, so any data in the repository will be lost. |
