Hi :) |
2 |
|
3 |
It seems I don't understand something about cron(tab). Can someone help |
4 |
me pls: |
5 |
|
6 |
I want to run flexbackup with the following backup plan: |
7 |
* monthly full |
8 |
* weekly diff |
9 |
* daily incr |
10 |
|
11 |
So I have installed sys-process/vixie-cron-4.1-r12 (and virtual/cron-0 |
12 |
and sys-process/cronbase-0.3.3). |
13 |
|
14 |
My crontab (created with "crontab -e") contains: |
15 |
|
16 |
00 03 2-31 * 1-6 /usr/bin/flexbackup -set root -level incremental |
17 |
00 03 2-31 * 0 /usr/bin/flexbackup -set root -level differential |
18 |
00 03 1 * * /usr/bin/flexbackup -set root -level full |
19 |
|
20 |
The problem I'm facing is, that incr and diff are executed each day |
21 |
_both_ at the same time (which flexbackup luckily handles well). |
22 |
|
23 |
From my understanding the 2nd line (diff) should only be run on sundays, |
24 |
and the 1st line (inc) should not run sundays. |
25 |
|
26 |
|
27 |
Can someone please explain me what I'm doing wrong? |

Thank you, |
