In order to circumvent this without frivolously changing settings, you need to run the backup from outside of the main Odoo instance. How to do this is outlined in <a class="reference external" href="https://blog.laslabs.com/2016/10/running-python-scripts-within-odoos-environment/">this blog post</a>.</li> </ul> <a name="bug-tracker"></a> <h3>Bug Tracker</h3> <p>Bugs are tracked on <a class="reference external" href="https://github.com/OCA/server-tools/issues">GitHub Issues</a>.
