I couldn't find this documented, and Zenoss does not appear to have a feature for periodic backups, so I figured I'd post here for others to reference.
The following applies to CentOS5 and probably all other flavors of linux, but not BSD (linux cron allows setting environment variables directly in the crontab). To run zenbackup every Sunday at one minute past midnight, add the following to the zenoss users crontab file using 'crontab -e': Code: # Set ZENHOME environment variable ZENHOME=/opt/zenoss # minute hour day month weekday task 1 0 * * sun /opt/zenoss/bin/zenbackup --save-mysql-access Hopefully this will be of use to someone. -------------------- m2f -------------------- Read this topic online here: http://forums.zenoss.com/viewtopic.php?p=26954#26954 -------------------- m2f -------------------- _______________________________________________ zenoss-users mailing list [email protected] http://lists.zenoss.org/mailman/listinfo/zenoss-users
