Hi there!
Download patch 9198 for raq4 and look for /usr/local/sbin/cobalt_prebackup and
cobalt_postbackup. These will can dump the cobalt postgres postgres database
to /var/cobalt/backups so that it may be restored later. There are also
scripts to sync quota information in postgres with the OS and to integrate
with 3rd party backup systems, like Arkeia, NetWorker, and NetBackup.
HTH,
