**Disaster Recovery Notes for zope 2.5**

<i>I pushed my zope server too hard, perhaps it got indigestion (*refusal to pack the database which kept growing*) from the crazy multiple ways I use webdav, perhaps from the incessant upgrade changes to the linux kernel, woody distribution or zope, and zope products, or perhaps a hardware flaw; i don't know but I learned a few tricks</i>

- Make regular backups (that is an old trick, never too late to learn) , some offsite

- use **fsrecover.py -p -P0 -v2 Data.fs.corrupted Data.fs.recovered**

- to prevent zope database growing out of control, use the following *environment al variable* in the zope start script: **ZOPE_DATABASSE_QUOTA = size_in_bytes**

- shut down all webdav connections; davfs, cadaver, web folders

- restart, reboot
