[erlang-questions] The way to backup mnesia data daily

[James Kingsbery]

I've followed those instructions before with success. I think you need to
give more to go on - is 'web_server@REDACTED' the new node name? When
you look at the node's name (eg, as shown in mnesia:info/0) what do you see?

I would add that you should look at what your box is doing when you run
backups. Depending on what sort of data you have stored, it could use a lot
of resources and make the box sluggish or even cause a kernel panic.
