+The server is running backupninja, the config files for this are in {{{/etc/backup.d/}}}, {{{/etc/backup.d/20.mysql}}} which dumps all the MySQL databases to {{{/var/backups/mysql}}}.
+
+17th November 2013 we switched the servers filesystem to a ZFS server on the network and filesystem backups are now done via ZFS snapshots so the rsync backup was disabled, see ticket:535#comment:22 however these backups are not available to anyone apart from the Webarchitects sysadmin so on 23rd July 2014 on ticket:763 additional backups were set up, these are done via {{{/usr/local/bin/agile-backup}}}, see AgileBackup and people who have had their ssh public keys added can access these backups via SFTP:
+
+{{{
+sftp tn-parrot@store1.webarch.net
+}}}
+
+The latest backups are in {{{parrot.webarch.net}}} and 60 days worth of snapshots are in {{{~/.zfs/}}}, you can mount these backups locally, for example on Debian:
+
+{{{
+aptitude install sshfs
+mkdir -p /media/tn-puffin
+chmod 700 /media/tn-puffin/
+mkdir /media/tn-puffin/latest
+mkdir /media/tn-puffin/archive
+echo "sshfs#tn-puffin@store1.webarch.net:puffin.webarch.net /media/tn-puffin/latest fuse ro,nobootwait 0 0" >> /etc/fstab
+echo "sshfs#tn-puffin@store1.webarch.net::.zfs/snapshot /media/tn-puffin/archive fuse ro 0,nobootwait 0" >> /etc/fstab
+mount -a
+}}}
