Document Library Export

[modjibe]

Hi,

I am using Alfresco 4.0 in order to manage pdf files. I would like to export the entire Document Library as an archive containing the folder system of the document library and all the files. The idea is to perform this task manually every month. Now, I am backing up the entire Alfresco folder on my c: hard drive,  but I am not sure to be able to backup Alfresco this way (can I reinstall Alfresco and syncing the new alfresco folder with the backup ?? would be to easy…)

IF you are just wanted to get backup of the files from alfresco you need not to copy full alfresco.
You can configure CIFS of webDev and copy all the contents directly from there and keep it on your hard drive.

Also you can use Alfresco's Import export functionality where you can take backup of all the documents in form of ACP file and the in order to recover all the document you can import it on any instance of alfresco.
In that case you will have back up of your files as well as metadata.
