  28. You can with this module! Specify the credentials to the server, specify
  29. a path and everything will be backed up automatically. This is done

  53. Known issues / Roadmap
  54. ======================
  55. * On larger databases, it is possible that backups will die due to Odoo server
  56. settings. In order to circumvent this without frivolously changing settings,
  57. you need to run the backup from outside of the main Odoo instance. How to do
  58. this is outlined in `this blog post
  59. <https://blog.laslabs.com/2016/10/running-python-scripts-within-odoos-environment/>`_.
  60. Bug Tracker
