Run 2 copy full system backup

[dannygoh]

Hi,

I would like to run 2 copy of full system backup in a single directadmin server.

Mon - Sat : backup to local drive
Sun : backup to remote computer.

Is there anyway to do it?

I don't think so.

However, you know what time the backups are created, add a cron job to copy Sunday's backup offsite, or setup rsync or ftp to pull the backup weekly to the backup server.

I found out a hard way to do it.

Copy /usr/local/sysbk/conf.sysbk /usr/local/sysbk/conf.remote.sysbk

copy /usr/local/sysbk/sysbk /usr/local/sysbk/sysbk.remote

edit sysbk.remote

CNF="$INSPATH/conf.sysbk"

to

CNF="$INSPATH/conf.remote.sysbk"

add a cron job
0 3 * * 7 /usr/local/sysbk/sysbk.remote -q

now i have original sysbk backup on Mon to Sat to local disk and Sun sysbk.remote backup to remote computer

That's the only way to do it.
