Maintenance¶

When operating the system, you must supervise:

Monitor the utilization of hardware resources (CPU, RAM, free disk size)
Timely elimination of causes of hardware resource overload, or increase in hardware resources
Protection of the server operating system from unauthorized access
Protection of the system from DDoS-attacks
Data backup
Updating of the system when new versions are released by the developer
Deletion or transfer of old .log files

Backup¶

The database and the data directories specified in the docker-compose.yml file named data must be backed up:

/opt/getscreen/db/data
/opt/getscreen/download/data
/opt/getscreen/image/data
/opt/getscreen/storage/data

To update the system, run the following commands:

cd /opt/getscreen/
sudo docker-compose pull
sudo docker-compose up -d

The Server and Download components make schema changes in the database on their own, if necessary.

For major upgrades, the developer can provide additional instructions which must be followed to correctly upgrade to the new version of the system.
