[Building Sakai] sakai site archive and duplicate site

[Beth Kirschner]

Site Archive downloads an XML archive of the site, which can later be uploaded to re-create the site. It is _not_ a complete backup and not all tool data is archived.
Duplicating sites does _not_ create a copy of all tool data.

Neither is intended as a backup. I would recommend not allowing faculty to delete sites (site.del permission).

I would like to recommend them to backup their sites, if their sites have important files. It seems to me duplicate site looks simple for our users to copy of their site, but I would like to know better before I jump into the conclusion.
