I did a first pass at creating a backup process for
gerrit.ovirt.org:

This is now:
http://ovirt.org/wiki/Gerrit_server_backup
It includes the addition of a PostgreSQL database backup script. All
the backups for this are found on the remote host (ovirt.org)
/home/gerrit-backup.
In testing I've run initial backups and copies to the remote host of
the git repo and gerrit database; they'll also run tonight in a few
hours (10 and 10:20 pm East coast time.)

Right now it uses rsync on /usr/local/src/git to a remote directory
at ovirt.org:/home/gerrit-backup/gerrit.ovirt.org-src-backup/src/
.
So that's my hacky process and bash script to start. Very open to
other ideas.
One I'm not clear on is what we really need backed up from
gerrit.ovirt.org? I'd like us to get /etc in a private git repo,
maybe we just do that as a single repo that we distribute across
all hosts' /root directories? Should we also be using git for
backing up the git repo - so have gerrit-backup on the remote host
pull changes instead of pushing a directory structure via rsync?
Itamar mentions that we need to backup the Gerrit DB, which I'll
work on next. I reckon that's a combination of a dump of the
database and rsyncing the results to the remote host?
