I am trying to put in a cron job to run zenbackup nightly as the zenoss user.
Unfortunately this is not working. At first I thought it was because the zenoss
environment variables set in the zenoss user profile .bashrc weren't being
picked up by cron, but I added them to the backup script directly, so this
should not be the case. However, the job continues to fail. What am I missing?
The crontab entry is:
# Run Zenoss backup daily
0 23 * * * zenoss /usr/local/bin/zenoss-backup /home/backup
The zenoss-backup script is:
#!/bin/bash
# Backs up the Zenoss databases (Zeo and MySQL).
export ZENHOME=/usr/local/zenoss
export PYTHONPATH=$ZENHOME/lib/python
export PATH=$ZENHOME/bin:$PATH
MINPARAMS="1"
if [ $# -lt "$MINPARAMS" ]
then
echo "zenoss-backup /path/to/backup/folder"
else
$ZENHOME/bin/zenbackup --save-mysql-access
--file=${1}/zenoss-backup_`date +%Y-%m-%dT%H-%M-%S`.tgz
fi
