===Connecting to the Database Server===
You can map the database server's drive in the same way that you map the bulk drive on the RDP server. The details are:

== Server Backup Policy ==
Backups are written to an external usb HDD at midnight everyday. Backup logs are also updated.
# For linux/unix machines this is done by invoking backup scripts from cron (see /etc/cron . tab for execution set-up)
# For windows machines we use the built in Windows Server Backup tool.
Current backup policy is to backup complete \bulk folder.
Current backup policy is to backup all MySQL databases on the server.
Backup script: /root/scripts/web_mysqldump_backup.plx
Backup log: /var/log/web_mysqldump_backup.log.gz
The script uses mysqldump and rsync for backup. As of #6-13-2016, ##backup destination paths are hard-coded in the script. ##TO DOsDO: add command line options like --backup-destination= remote/local, --verbose/quiet##redo this script like for database server (see below) because its cleaner.implementation.

Current backup policy is to backup most PostgreSQL databases on the server. We ignore a few test databases.
The script uses pg_dump for backup. All databases are then collected in a tar archive.
