Hello, I use this line in crontab to enforce full backup on weekends: 55 19 * * 5 backuppc /usr/share/backuppc/bin/BackupPC_serverMesg backup HOSTIP HOST USER 1 I usually put the time to run at 5 minutes before the end of blackout period to ensure that it will start earlier than normal backup run. Also I put FQDN for both HOST and HOSTIP. Number 1 at the end means full backup (0 would be incremental). -- Best Regards Vladislav Kurz ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Check out the vibrant tech community on one of the world's most engaging tech sites, Slashdot.org! http://sdm.link/slashdot _______________________________________________ BackupPC-users mailing list BackupPC-users@lists.sourceforge.net List: https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/backuppc-users Wiki: http://backuppc.wiki.sourceforge.net Project: http://backuppc.sourceforge.net/
