Re: [keycloak-user] Backup of config and users

Well, I don’t know, using db tools is certainly more efficient. There are probably a number of ways to backup the keycloak data. However, looking at it from a „product perspective“ I think that keycloak needs to have a builtin method to backup and restore its own data. When you are running keycloak in a production environment you need to have a recommended and supported way of creating and restoring your backups. Most certainly there are alredy a number of companies which already have these procedures in place. Wouldn’t it be a good idea to write them down and add them to a „backup and restore“ Chapter in the keycloak documentation? What do you think? *Von:* Stian Thorgersen [mailto:sthorger@redhat.com] *Gesendet:* Mittwoch, 1.

Having an automatted process in mind, is there any way to know when I can stop the instance again "once the export is done"? -----Ursprüngliche Nachricht----- Von: Sebastien Blanc [mailto:sblanc@redhat.com] Gesendet: Freitag, 27.
