NAME

       gm-backup_database - complete backup of GNUmed database

SYNOPSIS

       gm-backup_database

DESCRIPTION

       The  gm-backup_database script creates a backup of the database schema,
       data, and roles which can be used to restore  a  GNUmed  database  from
       scratch.

       It  is  a  really  good  idea  to use it in a daily cron/anacron job to
       ensure that GNUmed patient data are safe against data loss.  The Debian
       GNU/Linux  packaged  version  of the GNUmed server installs such a cron
       job by default.
