Hello, i am using Odoo 13 community. When you install Odoo 13 you can create a administration. So far so good. This administration is going to a standard location. My question is, is there a possibility to create this administration in a other directory ? We have a drive that we automatically backup. So it would be great to place the administration on that drive. Is this a option wich i can do in Odoo? Or do i have to do this in PostgreSQL but how Odoo knows where to find the administration. Hope someone can help me with this.

Hi Niyas, thanks for your reply. You are almost correct. My question is the database on a other location on the same server. But if i see your answer this is just the same. I am correct?

Hi,

First of all am not fully clear with the question, please correct me if this not what exactly you are looking for. Commonly Odoo and its database PostgreSQL is installed in the same machine or same server itself, if you are looking to implement the database in another server, it is possible in Odoo, you can specify the db_host in the Odoo configuration file.

In the configuration file:-

db_host = False
db_port = False
db_user = odoo
db_password = False

Please  make sure that at the database server all access configurations are set properly, to accept connection from your Odoo server.

And if you are looking, how to backup the system, there are custom modules to take automatic backup of the system and to store it in Google drive etc.

Automatic Backup: Database auto-backup

Thanks
