Creating Backup Schedule in RHEL 5

Creating Backup Schedule in RHEL 5:

  1. Open Putty
  2.  Login to the server (entering server IP)
  3. Login to server using user name and password from the Putty SSH Console
  4.  To create a CRON schedule type:crontab –e <enter>
  5. VI text editor will open as a blank file for the “crontab entries” to be entered; each line represents a separate crontab entry (hereafter referred to as “CRON JOBS”).
  6.  Each CRON JOB has at least 6 sections. Each section is delimited by a single blank space, but the final section may have spaces within it. No spaces are allowed within Sections 1-5, blank spaces are allowed only between those sections. Sections 1-5 are to indicate when and how often you want the task (the sixth position) to be executed and it uses the system time for execution.
  7.  Here is how positions 1-5 are laid out:

1 Minute 0-59
2 Hour 0-23 (0 = midnight)
3 Day 1-31
4 Month 1-12
5 Weekday 0-6 (0 = Sunday)
An asterisk (*) is used to indicate that every instance (i.e. every hour, every weekday, etc.) of the particular time period will be used.

  1. Backup script within the crontab entry is

 * 14 * * 5 root tar czpvf /home/user/backup-$(date +%Y-%m-%d).tar.gz /opt/lampp

 

  1. The CRON is set to 1400 hour (2:00 p.m.) 5th day of week (Friday)
  2. The command that will execute is
    tar czpvf /home/user/backup-$(date +%Y-%m-%d).tar.gz /opt/lamppThis above command will tar the entire content of the directory /opt/lampp and put the tar file into  /home/user/
    The name of the tar file will be backup-$(date +%Y-%m-%d).tar.gz (backup-YYYY-MM-DD.tar.gz)
