How to backup information?

Hello everybody.

I didn't find it in the official documentation.

I will need to change the server where netbox is installed, how can I backup the information present in the system?

Administration -> Replicating NetBox:
https://docs.netbox.dev/en/stable/administration/replicating-netbox/

You should find all the information need here.

For the database, here's a simple script you can run from cron:

#!/bin/sh -e
mkdir -p /var/backups/netbox
chmod 750 /var/backups/netbox
su -c 'pg_dump netbox' postgres | gzip -9 >/var/backups/netbox/netbox.$(date +%Y%m%d%H%M).gz
