Setting a time for backups to any furture Sentora release would be really great for people like me for example my education site gets really busy during the day GMT 9am and 9pm, so running a backup during this period is really not good for me. If I could set it myself would be beneficial.
Thanks
hi
I'm wondering of how this can be possible with a temporary code editing
I almost did that by setting an external script doing the job.

If I had the time the way I would do it is
- Interval choice, day,week,fortnight, month
- Optional date and time choice
- Also a run backup now.(Run this via ajax)
- Plus ability to chose what is backup e.g. whole site cnf and hostdata and db or just clients etc...
Shouldn't be to hard to knock up.
I want to setup backup day only once a week and time is 2AM, how can I do that?
You should script it. That's what I did
Are you keen on sharing the "script" you have done?
currently no
still I shared most of it ;-).
"currently"?
You have been saying since February that you "did the opposite and created your own script"... but why? Why not just fix or "upgrade" the default backup code?
Features that would transform the default backup system to an amazing backup system (summarizing):
- Per user backup enabling (Instead of a global switch)
- Time of day of when it should be doing backups.
- Optimized backup for large servers
- and of course officially implement the fix for the "multi-backup within same day" issue
