Hi
I have been trying to sort out some issues that occur in my backup logs to no avail, and I was wondering if anybody else has had/got the same issues.
The start of the log file is as follows:
[cpbackup] Started at Fri Jul 6 22:29:18 2012
[cpbackup] Mount found (********-backups.vps-10.com:/backups/**.**.***.** on /backups type nfs (rw,noexec,noatime,hard,intr,rsize=8192,wsize=8192,n
I have a CentOS server running with backup made to an external HDD.
I run a full backup everyday at 4am and incremental backups every 2 hour.
Hi All,
Can differential backups be used to solve missing incremental backups?
Say you take daily incremental backups, then for one reason or another you lose the incremental backups for the next 3 days. Can you perform a differential backup to cover to gap somehow?
This problem is driving me NUTS!!
We take backups of all of our production databases to a network share, which are then backed up to tape nightly.
8pm Mon-Fri - Full backup, followed by log backup
7am-7pm Mon-Fri, at half-hour interval - Log backup
Our backups have been working in this manner since we migrated from SQL Server Standard 2000 to 2008, 3 years ago.
I've tested a few of backup utilities and still haven't found one that would satisfy me.
Almost every one of them has two options:
- full backup - not an option to use frequently
- incremental backup - seems right, but there's one thing about it:
Incremental backup builds on a base of a full backup, backing up only those files, that were created/changed.
I've new to Xubuntu and I'm trying to figure out how to write a complex setting of Rsync or Rdiff-Backup.
I need to write a backup that take what's on my remote server and back it up to a specific folder on my computer. I would also like to run a backup of mysql this way too if possible. It would be nice to keep like the last 5 backups and no more.
I would like to automate this if possible.
i have created a file named "backups.sh" to take a backup of mysql db.
/usr/bin/mysqldump -A -u [username] -p[password] | gzip > /backups`date +%m_%d_%y`.gz
And set crontab.
10 * * * * /root/backups.sh
But didnt take backup.
i had run /etc/init.d/cron start.
i use ubuntu
what the problem with me????????any help...
Hi. Can someone tell me if the following script that i have made is a script for INCREMENTAL BACKUP or FULL BACKUP.
Hi!
I look at ls -ltr /backup/cpbackup/monthly and I see those backups are three months old, two months old and the like across all of my Cpanel servers.
I renamed monthly to monthly.0 and then created an empty monthly hoping that would flush something wrong with the backup system.
Ran backups this morning, but the logs say...
