Guys/Gals is there a simple addin to copy things from your sys folder to your data folders so that it will be backed up. I want to install subversion on my homeserver since i always leave it on but ive read people warn not to install your subversion repository on the data drive where you have folder duplication running. I of course want my repository backed up. So i can either put it on the sys drive or i can stick it on the data drive in whatever folder but i have to make sure folder duplication is not selected on this folder. This is my quandry....how to back up my repository automatically. I will have to either manually do it (which i don't want to do) or i will have to somehow get my repository copied occasionally from either the sys drive or the data drive where folder duplication is disabled to a folder where duplication is enabled. What are my options here? I would really like not to have to do this manually. Any help would be appreciated.
No, there's no add-in to do that. There are alternatives; probably the best I can think of is a scheduled task. The scheduled task would shut down any services that svn is using, then use robocopy to copy the repository into the shares. Finally it would restart required services.
Obviously this would require you to configure your backup strategy yourself. I'm not on the WHS team, I just post a lot. :)
