First start Postgres Db, Activemq, with build of cron-logrotate-backup helping container with backup volume.

./first-base.sh up 

Start Alfresco Instance.

./run-instance.sh up 

Open Alfresco in browser with url http://localhost:8080/share/ user admin, password admin, spend a little time creating sites uploading documents for later review of restored backup data.

Stop Alfresco with Ctrl-C and purge Solr volume data, Alfresco repository volume and Postgres data volume are not purged.

./run-instance.sh purge 

Run backup of Sql database and Alfresco data file repository, script will generate .sql and .gz in local file system outside of docker containers.

./sql-dump.sh 

Backup files are saved on local file system, now it is safe to purge all docker containers

./first-base.sh purge 

Verify sql backup file is present in local file system

ls -l *.sql 

Verify repository backup file is present in local file system

ls -l backup/*.gz 

Start Postgres and create volumes where backup data will be restored.

./first-base.sh up 

Verify Alfresco database exist.

docker exec postgres psql -U alfresco -l 

Verify Alfresco database is empty.

docker exec postgres bin/bash -c "PGPASSWORD=alfresco psql --username alfresco alfresco -c \"\dt+\"" 

Restore Alfresco Sql database

./restore-dump.sh 

Verify Alfresco Sql tables are created

docker exec postgres bin/bash -c "PGPASSWORD=alfresco psql --username alfresco alfresco -c \"\dt+\"" 

Verify Alfresco data file system is empty

docker exec cron ls -l usr/local/tomcat/alf_data 

Restore Alfresco data from backup file

./data-restore.sh 

Verify Alfresco data file system is not empty

docker exec cron ls -l usr/local/tomcat/alf_data 

Start Alfresco instance again

./run-instance.sh up 

Open Alfresco http://localhost:8080/share/ and verify backup data are restored.
