Wave comes with means to export all of a users waves and import them into another server or just store them for backup purposes. This process doesn't have to be performed on the server itself, any user can export their waves allowing them to make their own personal backups.

  2. In the root directory there is a run-export.sh file, make it executable using chmod +x run-export.sh
  3. Run the script by executing ./run-export.sh to see available parameters and access help
