gizmola Posted May 11, 2011 Share Posted May 11, 2011 If this is on linux, all you need is a little shell scripting. A quick google will return you pages of results. Typically people will cron their backup. If it's a database driven website, then you will want a job that dumps the database(s) to files and you can then combine that with the files, or just leave them seperate. Generating the backup is simple, you can use tar and bzip in one simple command line and you have everything you need. The problem is moving the backed up file to some other machine, or a backup tape or what have you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
