+## Backing Up Your System
+It is *highly* recommended to perform **regular backups** of your system. Nothing is worse than spending a lot of time setting up a system only to have to go away unexpectedly!
+
+In general, simply creating a copy/archive of your system is enough for the default configuration. If you have changed default paths to point outside of your main ENiGMA½ installation take special care to ensure these are preserved as well. Database files may be in a state of flux when simply copying files. See **Database Backups** below for details on consistent backups.
+
+### Database Backups
+[SQLite's CLI backup command](https://sqlite.org/cli.html#special_commands_to_sqlite3_dot_commands_) can be used for creating database backup files. This can be performed as an additional step to a full backup to ensure the database is backed up in a consistent state (whereas simply copying the files does not make any guarantees).
+
+As an example, consider the following Bash script that creates foo.sqlite3.backup files:
+
+```bash
+for dbfile in /path/to/enigma-bbs/db/*.sqlite3; do
+    sqlite3 $dbfile ".backup '/path/to/db_backup/$(basename $dbfile).backup'"
+done
+```
+
+### Backup Tools
+There are many backup solutions available across all platforms. Configuration of such tools is outside the scope of this documentation. With that said, the author has had great success with [Borg](https://www.borgbackup.org/).
+
+## General Maintenance Tasks
+### Vacuuming Database Files
+SQLite database files become less performant over time and waste space. It is recommended to periodically vacuum your databases. Before proceeding, you should make a backup!
+
+Example:
+```bash
+sqlite3 ./db/message.sqlite3 "vacuum;"
+```
