<h2 id="backup-databasus">How to backup Databasus itself?</h2>
<p>
If you want to backup your Databasus instance (including all
configurations, databases and credentials), follow these steps:
</p>
<ol>
<li>
Go to <code>/opt/databasus</code> (or the folder where you
installed Databasus)
</li>
<li>
Navigate to the <code>databasus-data</code> directory
</li>
</ol>
<p>
<strong>You need to backup:</strong>
</p>
<ul>
<li>
<code>secret.key</code> — encryption key for your credentials
</li>
<li>
<code>/pgdata</code> — internal PostgreSQL database of
Databasus that contains all your configurations and backup
metadata
</li>
</ul>
<p>
If you use local storage for backups, you can also backup the{" "}
<code>backups</code> folder.
</p>
<p>
<strong>Note:</strong> The <code>secret.key</code> file alone is
not sufficient to restore encrypted backups. You also need the{" "}
<code>/pgdata</code> folder, which contains the encryption
metadata required for decryption.
</p>
<p>
<strong>To restore Databasus on another server:</strong> simply
recreate the <code>databasus-data</code> folder structure with
the backed up files and start Databasus.
