NAME
       ipa-backup - Back up an IPA master


SYNOPSIS
       ipa-backup [OPTION]...


DESCRIPTION
       Two kinds of backups: full and data-only.

       The  back up is optionally encrypted using either the default root GPG key or a named key.
       No passphrase is supported.

       Backups are stored in a subdirectory in /var/lib/ipa/backup.

       The naming convention for full backups is ipa-full-YEAR-MM-DD-HH-MM-SS  in  the  GMT  time
       zone.

       The  naming  convention  for  data backups is ipa-data-YEAR-MM-DD-HH-MM-SS In the GMT time
       zone.

       Within the subdirectory is file, header, that describes the back up  including  the  type,
       system,  date of backup, the version of IPA, the version of the backup and the services on
       the master.

       A backup can not be restored on another host.

       A backup can not be restored in a different version of IPA.
