If an external filestore is used for document management, database backup does not include the backup of the attachments

Status in OpenObject Server: Opinion

Bug description:
attachments are stored in
openobject-server/bin/filestore/<dbname>
a backup just takes a copy of the database content , not of the attachments

so the cylce backup/restore looses data.
especially tricky if postgres-db and openerp-server run on different computers.

absolute minimum requirement is to add this information to the backup menu
* Backup Database (without attachments)
* Restore Database (without attachments)
help="Attachments are stored in openobject-server/bin/filestore/<dbname> and must be backuped separately"

a better solution would be of course to include the attachments in the backup/restore process (which IMHO has to be redesigned to use a storage location on the server and avoid transfer of mass data to and from the client.)
