NAME

       gm-backup_database - complete backup of GNUmed database

SYNOPSIS

       gm-backup_database

DESCRIPTION

       The  gm-backup_database script creates a backup of the database schema, data, and roles which can be used
       to restore a GNUmed database from scratch.

       It is a really good idea to use it in a daily cron/anacron job to ensure that  GNUmed  patient  data  are
       safe  against data loss.  The Debian GNU/Linux packaged version of the GNUmed server installs such a cron
       job by default.
