Backup with tar
To backup a site using tar, i created a shell script.
mkdir /usr/serverok/ vi /usr/serverok/backup-daily.sh
With following content
#!/bin/bash /bin/tar zcvhf /backup/daily/backup.tgz /home/serverok.in/public_html/
For weekly backup
cp /usr/serverok/backup-daily.sh /usr/serverok/backup-weekly.sh sed -i 's/daily/weekly/g' /usr/serverok/backup-weekly.sh
Make it executable
chmod 755 /usr/serverok/backup-daily.sh chmod 755 /usr/serverok/backup-weekly.sh
Create backup folders
mkdir -p /backup/weekly mkdir -p /backup/daily
Set cronjob
crontab -e
Add
@weekly /usr/serverok/backup-weekly.sh > /var/log/backup-weekly.log 2>&1 @daily /usr/serverok/backup-daily.sh > /var/log/backup-daily.log 2>&1
