====== Retrieve Backup in Zurich ====== ===== Introduction ===== All files in the home directory in Zurich are backuped once a day and can be retrieved when something went wrong in the meantime. ===== Retrieve the backup for Thunderbird ===== When Thunderbird does not work anymore, the backup can be retrieved the following way: * Store your .thunderbird folder under a different name: ''mv .thunderbird/ .thunderbird.bak/'' * Retrieve the backup: ''rsync -avx /disk/recover/YYYY-MM-DD/home/hep/username/.thunderbird/ .thunderbird/'', where YYYY-MM-DD is for example 2009-07-25 * Check that all the files are in the correct place. * Restart Thunderbird With all other folders, it should work the same way. Note, though, that files in /disk/data are not backuped.
