Maintenance

When a new version is available, run:

./update.sh

The script performs the following steps:

1. Pulls the latest Docker images

2. Backs up the current volume data

3. Creates a database backup

4. Runs database migrations

5. Starts all Docker services

6. Cleans up unused Docker resources

Backup Strategy

• Daily automated database backups via pgbackups service

• Volume data backup before updates

• Retention policies:

  • 7 days of daily backups

  • 4 weeks of weekly backups

  • 6 months of monthly backups

The specifics can be adjusted in the docker-config file.

Backup Recovery

First, make sure there are no connections to the database by terminating all active connections:

SELECT * FROM pg_stat_activity WHERE pg_stat_activity.datname='DataSpace';
SELECT pg_terminate_backend(pid) FROM pg_stat_activity WHERE datname = 'DataSpace';

Then drop and recreate the database:

DROP DATABASE "DataSpace";
CREATE DATABASE "DataSpace";

Finally, add the backup:

zcat "/opt/dataspace/Platform/volume/DataSpace_db_backup/<choose_your_backup>.sql.gz" | psql --host="database" --username="postgres" --dbname="DataSpace" -W
