Backups aren't created on a daily basis? - psygarden - 02-15-2008 06:58 AM
I've come to the conclusion that backups haven't been taken on a daily basis, could anyone tell me where it best start looking?
I did a quick search on the forum (only 2 since there is a 60 second delay each time i search) and found that i should check /etc/cron.d/ispcp
This is the relevant text from that file:
Quote:# Backup
0 3 root /var/www/ispcp/engine/backup/ispcp-backup-all yes &>/var/log/ispcp/ispcp-backup-all-mngr.log
0 3 root /var/www/ispcp/engine/backup/ispcp-backup-ispcp noreport &>/var/log/ispcp/ispcp-backup-ispcp-mngr.log
What else should i check to start the backups automatically at 3am each day?
greetings,
Rik

Check your /tmp for a .lock file and delete it.
Next is, check your Logs:
Code:
/var/log/ispcp/ispcp-backup-all-mngr.log
var/log/ispcp/ispcp-backup-ispcp-mngr.logCould be set in the ispcp.conf.

and in the cron file... the lines should start with
0 3 * * * root ....
I didn't see the stars in your example above - and it's not because of the fog....

Cron does not need a reload or restart after a modification of the crontabs.

ok - I always do the safe way :-)

Judging by the looks on Munin the backups have been taken the past few days, still have to check them manually though!
Thanks,
