I have read that copying the data directory will work. But, that is a combination of logs and snapshots. How do folks backup a zookeeper infrastructure ? Export ? Dump ? Custom script ? What are the best practices ?

We’re modifying the zkConfig.py script which is a contributed project when you install zookeeper. It lets you interact with zookeeper through a python script.
We’re modifying the scripts to easily dump and save the entire contents each night and then backup the files. Though I would be curious to hear other people’s solutions to this as well.
