Backup

MyTourbook has not an integrated backup therefore an external backup must be used. All data of MyTourbook are stored in the data directory which has additional subdirectories:

<data directory>\derby-database
Contains the SQL database with all saved tours, markers, reference tours and other data.

<data directory>\[other subdirctories]

The other subdirectories contains application specific data, e.g. the size and position of dialogs, used paths and other information.

Create Database Backup Archive

The tour database contains several files and when a backup is restored, then all files from the same date/time needs to be restored. To keep all files together and to compress them also into a zip-archive, the following command file can do the job.

The content of this file create-one-MT-backup-file.cmd needs to be adjusted to your environment, the original source is from https://gist.github.com/jokimaki
