 backupninja has been installed and two backup tasks have been configured in {{{/etc/backup.d/}}}, {{{10.sys}}} which does backups of system settings and {{{20.mysql}}} which dumps all the mysql databases into {{{/var/backups/mysql}}} and uses {{{/etc/mysql/debian.cnf}}} for authentication.

+In October 2013 we switched the servers filesystem to a ZFS server on the network, see ticket:593#comment:5 and now filesystem backups are 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-puffin@store1.webarch.net
+}}}
+
+The latest backups are in puffin.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
+}}}
