Hi,
we all know, that a manual backup by using the Backup manager isn't the
most reliable backup solution.
Is it possible to backup all necessary files and directories with a
script called by a cronjob?
Bye,
Stefan

The Backup manager is able to do scheduled backups. It needs a SMB
share to do so, but that should be no problem as it is recommended to
store the backup on an other machine anyway, no? For how to use the
backup manager have a look at
http://www.djigzo.com/documents/administration-guide.pdf in chapter 20.

As already explained by Andreas you can use the built-in scheduled
backup to backup to an SMB share, aka CIFS (see Admin -> Backup manager
-> Backup). If this is not sufficient, you can backup using your own
script (for example called from a cronjob) by directly calling the
backup script in DJIGZO_HOME/scripts/dobackup.sh.
Usage
Usage: (-r | -b | -l) -f file [-p password] args
for example to backup all settings to a tar file use:
dobackup.sh -b -f ~/backup.tar
to create a backup encrypted with PGP encryption with password "test" use:
dobackup.sh -b -f ~/backup.tar.pgp -p test
Kind regards,
Martijn

Hi,
sorry, I did not recognize the link "backup config".
Thanks for the hint.
@Martijn: Thank you for pointing me to the shell script.
