<div dir="ltr"><div>Dear all,</div><div>here [<b>1</b>] the Pull Request implementing GeoNode/GeoServer Backup and Restore and Migration.</div><div><br></div><div>I will add detailed documentation on GeoNode docs as soon as the PR has been accepted and merged.</div><div><br></div><div>This is briefly how it works.</div><div>Basically the PR implements two new GeoNode Management Commands, 'backup' and 'restore'.</div><div>Both commands allows you to:</div><div><br></div><div>1. Fully backup GeoNode data and fixtures on a zip archive</div><div>2. Fully backup GeoServer configuration (physical datasets - tables, shapefiles, geotiffs) must be copied manually on the GeoServer data dir</div><div>3. Fully restore GeoNode and GeoServer fixtures and catalog from the zip archive</div><div>4. Migrate fixtures from old GeoNode models to the new one</div><div><br></div><div>The usage of those commands is quite easy and straight. </div><div>The first step is to be sure that everything is correctly configured on the "settings.py" and "local_settings.py"; next just review the "geonode/base/management/commands/settings.ini" and ensure the few requested variables are all correctly configured.</div><div><br></div><div>In order to perform a <b>backup</b> just run the command:</div><div><br></div><div><b><i>python manage.py backup --backup-dir=/tmp/</i></b><br></div><div><br></div><div><img src="cid:ii_1570e83bb4045453" alt="Inline image 1" width="544" height="361"><br></div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div><div>In order to perform a <b>restore</b> just run the command:</div><div><br></div><div><b><i>sudo python manage.py restore --backup-file=/tmp/2016-09-09_053358.zip</i></b></div></div><div><br></div><div><img src="cid:ii_1570e8640ae0f896" alt="Inline image 2" width="544" height="420"><br></div><div><b>...</b></div><div><img src="cid:ii_1570e86b2c21c649" alt="Inline image 3" width="544" height="108"><br></div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div>It is worth notice that this functionality <b>requires</b> the latest GeoServer Extension (<b>2.9.x</b>) for GeoNode in order to correctly work (<i><a href="http://build.geonode.org/geoserver/latest/">http://build.geonode.org/geoserver/latest/</a></i>).</div><div><br></div><div>I would also like to advise that in the past few days I pushed several fixes to the GeoServer Ext for GeoNode, in particular:</div><div><br></div><div>1. Added the GeoServer Backup and Restore plugin</div><div>2. Fixed the printing module dependency preventing GeoServer to generate thumbnails</div><div>3. Added a correct rule on the REST security file in order to access the printing endpoint</div><div>4. Minor fixes mainly on dependencies</div><br clear="all"><div><div class="gmail_signature"><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div><div style="font-size:12.8px">Best Regards,</div><div style="font-size:12.8px">Alessio Fabiani.</div><div style="font-size:12.8px"><br></div><div><span style="font-size:12.8px">[</span><b style="font-size:12.8px">1</b><span style="font-size:12.8px">] - <a href="https://github.com/GeoNode/geonode/pull/2651">https://github.com/GeoNode/geonode/pull/2651</a> </span></div><div style="font-size:12.8px"><br></div><div style="font-size:12.8px"><div>==</div><div>GeoServer Professional Services from the experts!</div><div>Visit <a href="http://goo.gl/it488V" target="_blank">http://goo.gl/it488V</a> for more information.</div><div>==</div></div><div style="font-size:12.8px"><br></div><div style="font-size:12.8px">Ing.
