[ckan-dev] Adding and backup data

[Matthew Fullerton]

1&2 - roughly correct
3 - Yes. To backup the filestore you should backup the files under your
ckan.storage_path, for example /var/lib/ckan/default
4 - See
http://docs.ckan.org/en/latest/maintaining/database-management.html#import-and-export
- that together with 3 ought to allow you to completely copy a CKAN

Best,
Matt
