Note

This guide is obsolete for version 6.0.17.0904 and above as the database is backed up automatically by Partek Flow

Automatic backups are stored in ~/.partekflow/partek_db/backups. A database backup is taken daily, upon server shutdown, or upon request on the settings page. To restore, unpack the desired backup archive to the ~/.partekflow/partek_db folder.
