Thank you very much for your quick reply.
Yes, you can avoid backing up that location. If you start armory without it, it will regenerate the data from ~/.bitcoin/blocks and the contents of your Armory wallet, which is stored in ~/.armory/*.wallet
Hello, I use fedora and I regularly backup my home folder with dejadup, a program that creates incremental backups on another hard disk.
The folder ~/.armory/databases/blocks every time gets transferred to the external hdd and it takes a long time. I don't have this problem with the ~/.bitcoin folder cause it has a lot of files and only a few (the most recent?) get transferred during backups.
So I was wondering, can I tell the backup program to skip the folder ~/.armory/databases/ entirely? is it safe to do? What will happen if I start armory without this folder?
