How to change time of backup? ispCP 1.0.7 - alpracka - 03-09-2011 09:41 PM

Hello,

I would like to ask, how to change daily time of backup?

I'm running version ispCP 1.0.7 - build: 20101124 (stable) on Debian Lennny.

In /etc/ispcp/ispcp.conf I found parameters like:
Code:
# Crontab delayed tasks
BACKUP_HOUR = 3
BACKUP_MINUTE = 20

Default was 0:00, I changed it to 3:20, because backup makes my server freezed at 0:00 for next 5-10 minutes Sad. Anyways, this change wasn't enough and server still makes backup every day at 0:00.

Should I run ispcp-update script, after this change? Or how can I change time of backup?

Thanks for reply, best regards
alpracka

edit: crontab -e tells me: "no crontab for root - using an empty one"

You can try the following code to edit the backup time of ispCP 1.0.7
Quote:# mv -v /etc/ispcp/ispcp.conf /etc/ispcp/ispcp.old.conf
# cp -Rv /tmp/ispcp/etc/* /etc/
