Re: [BackupPC-users] backing up BackupPC server

Hi,

> I want to schedule a backup for the BackupPC system and config files. Is this possible?

default installation of BackupPC provides also localhost backup.
"Localhost backup" means of course BackupPC system and config files.
Or, if it is not avalilable, you can add it.

Usually BackupPC system files are stored here:
/usr/share/backuppc
, and config files are stored here:
/etc/backuppc

> how can I configure the path to the files to backup if the server and client would be in the same machine

All backup files are stored in the $Conf{TopDir} variable defined in /etc/backuppc/config.pl file (and also in web gui - server configuration section).

You will find localhost backup in $Conf{TopDir}/pc/localhost/X (where X is the backup number).

Hope this helps you
Regards
M
