I run Windows and use a program called Power Archiver to zip the directories.  I shut 
down the server, hit CTRL A to highlight everything, right click and send the directories 
and files to a file called mystic.zip

Then I drag the .zip file to my documents folder and restart Mystic.  Took less than 2 
minutes.  If I do another backup, I will rename the next one to match the date of the 
backup.
