====== How to perform asterCC system backup ======
<note tip>You need to ssh to your server for the following operation</note>
===== Database Backup =====
<code>
mysqldump -uroot -p astercc10 | gzip > astercc_db.sql.gz
</code>
System will prompt for database root password, you can find it in /etc/astercc.conf if you don't know.
<note warning>Note:If you see "mysqldump: Got error: 2002: Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock' (2) when trying to connect"，you should use <code> mysqldump -h127.0.0.1 -uroot -p astercc10 | gzip > astercc_db.sql.gz </code> </note>
===== File Backup =====
<code>
sudo tar czfP astercc_files.tar.gz /etc/asterisk /etc/astercc.conf /opt/asterisk/scripts/astercc /var/lib/asterisk /var/spool/asterisk /var/www/html  
</code>
===== Download Backup files=====
Now you have two files astercc_db.sql.gzip and astercc_files.tar.gz, you can download via ftp/sftp tools, or move the file to http folder so you can download from browser
<code>
sudo mv astercc_files.tar.gz astercc_db.sql.gzip /var/www/html/asterCC/app/webroot/ 
</code>
Then you can download by visiting

 http://your ip/astercc_files.tar.gz

and

 http://your ip/astercc_db.sql.gzip

<note tip>If you use CentOS，you can download by "wget http://your ip/astercc_files.tar.gz"  and  "wget http://your ip/astercc_db.sql.gzip" </note>
