I should have set this up years ago. But it's no tale of woe.

Help backing up loaded world
I've heard that copying a loaded database while it is being written to can corrupt it. Is there a way to safely copy a world while it is loaded? I remember reading somewhere about how to temporarily lock the database so it can be copied, but I forget where and how. I don't want to have to shut down minetest to do a backup.
