Question

Answer 1

By using this module you can backup your database periodically

https://www.odoo.com/apps/modules/7.0/crontab_config/ (v7)

you can also test this module

https://www.odoo.com/apps/modules/6.1/db_backup_ept/ (v6 it can be miggrated to v7)

in your case you can add button to execute the function that will be executed by the schedular.
