System DB Dump

In addition to backing up the pgsql directory on the CP server, the backup script can also create a dump of H-Sphere system database and SiteStudio databases. For this, make sure the following directories are listed:

          PROP_FILE   /hsphere/local/home/cpanel/shiva/psoft_config/hsphere.properties
          PROP_FILE   /hsphere/shared/SiteStudio/psoft_config/counter.properties
          PROP_FILE   /hsphere/shared/SiteStudio/psoft_config/poll.properties
          PROP_FILE   /hsphere/shared/SiteStudio/psoft_config/guestbook.properties

If H-Sphere database is large, the dump can take several hours to complete. You can speed it up by setting
fsync=off
in postgresql.conf. When you are done, unset this option back for safety reasons.
