Backups

Juan says:

I created an NFS share to have the rsync job Pedro created to copy over to /starexec/backup mounted from our backup server at 10.141.132.70

This is what the cron looks like now:

#0 18 * * 0,2,4 /root/scripts/backup_database.sh
0 1 * * * /root/scripts/rsync_tmbackup.sh /starexec/nethome /starexec/backup/
15 1 * * * /root/scripts/rsync_tmbackup.sh /starexec/home /starexec/backup/
20 1 * * * /root/scripts/rsync_tmbackup.sh /project /starexec/backup/
25 1 * * * /root/scripts/rsync_tmbackup.sh /cluster /starexec/backup/

#30 1 * * * /root/scripts/rsync_tmbackup.sh /starexec/nethome /Local_backup/
#45 1 * * * /root/scripts/rsync_tmbackup.sh /starexec/home /local_backup/

# Renew certificate every month
#0 0 1 * * /bin/certbot renew --post-hook "/bin/systemctl reload httpd24-httpd.service"

I’m not sure why the database backup is commented out.

Geoff says:

I see ...
DEST="/starexec/db_backup/"
Do you agree that should change to ...
DEST="/starexec/backup/"
... to use your backup server? Or would you create /starexec/db_backup/ ?

Here's the /root/scripts/backup_database.sh script ...

Ok, let me take this carefully.
