NAME
       ipa-backup - Back up an IPA master

SYNOPSIS
       ipa-backup [OPTION]...

DESCRIPTION
       Two kinds of backups: full and data-only.

       The  back  up is optionally encrypted using either the default root GPG
       key or a named key. No passphrase is supported.

       Backups are stored in a subdirectory in /var/lib/ipa/backup.

       The naming convention for full backups is  ipa-full-YEAR-MM-DD-HH-MM-SS
       in the GMT time zone.

       The  naming convention for data backups is ipa-data-YEAR-MM-DD-HH-MM-SS
       In the GMT time zone.

       Within the subdirectory is file, header, that  describes	 the  back  up
       including  the  type,  system,  date of backup, the version of IPA, the
       version of the backup and the services on the master.

       A backup can not be restored on another host.

       A backup can not be restored in a different version of IPA.
