Backing up

A guide for safely and reliably managing Executor’s persistent data.

Executor stores all persistent data — including metadata, assets, internal files, execution result — under the following directory:

/var/lib/executor

For most environments, storing data on the default filesystem is sufficient. However, for production-grade deployments, you may want to:

• Use an external SSD/NVMe drive
• Move the data directory to a larger or faster storage volume
• Enable regular automated backups for disaster recovery

This document explains how to safely move the Executor data directory and how to create and restore backups.
