Nope.  I have a volume attached to that server and backing up to that 
volume.

Re: Script for backing up Jenkins

[RAJENDRA PRASAD]

Hi I can suggest two approaches here,
All Jenkins configuration (jobs config, credentials,...etc) will be saved
in  directory.

If it is running on Linux it must in /var/lib/Jenkins/ folder

On the same Linux machine install SVN/git client create a commnd to
check-in files.

You can run this command via Unix cron job.

Another approach is via Jenkins backup plugin.

Another approach is to use a seperate Jenkins job to run SVN/git check-in
command from build command.

But last approach may not work when all Jenkins executors are stuck while
running other jobs.

Thanks
Rajendra

Hi
  What is your backup location?  I hope its not on the same server as the
Jenkins Master.
