NAME

       gm-backup - complete backup of GNUmed database

SYNOPSIS

       gm-backup

DESCRIPTION

       The  gm-backup  script  creates  a  backup  of  the database schema, data, and roles which can be used to
       recreate the backed up GNUmed database from scratch or to restore data into an existing  GNUmed  database
       (that is devoid of any data).

       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.
