Hello,
If anyone has, please let me know. I want to get a local backup in case the connection fails.

Hello Kathrin,
If I understand you correct, I only have to sync the MySQL DB's and I'm done?

Hello,
What I want to try is the following:
In normal use all clients are connecting to the internet to use Moodle.
In case our connection fails, I need a backup so clients can continue to work (local).
In all cases full operation is needed.
When I replicate both ways, can I realize this?

Hi,
thats almost what i m trying to do, except the users are always working on a local copy, which is synced with a main server.
But its a little difficult to sync both ways, so i simplified it a little by only sync the grades both ways.
In my case the good thing is, that there s a user group for each server and none of the groupA will ever do something on MoodleB, so its easy merge the grades, because there is an individual entry for each user in the database. Otherwise it gets more complicated due to the ids and relationships within the database.
cheers

Has there been any work on this in the past 3 years? I know I can get similar functionality with backup/restore, but I would prefer to use a one-click import functionality if it is available.
PS I voted for the relevant issue in Moodle Tracker, although it's still only listed as a 1.9 issue.
