Thank you Ofer,
I'm not sure what you mean by "...to backup the host before that."
in
what way should I backup the host, and what do you refer to when you
say host?
iiuc, the engine is inside a vm, so a simple disk snapshot would be optimal.
if not - any other method of backing up the host in which the engine is installed is
enough (lvm snapshot for example).
You can backup only the db - it's just a matter of how critical is your environment
(and the ease of revert)
Thank you, my apologies for the confusion.
Regards.
