Backup Automation

Post by ConligWX »

Hi

Ok I have setup how to automate the backup script, but how do I setup ftping the backup to another device. whenever I select ftp, there is no option to select the backup files. I take it I am going to have to sync my NAS to collect the backup files from the backup folder rather than using the meteobridge to send the file to another storage device?

Currently there is no "save backup via FTP" feature available. As Meteobridge serializes all Internet services this would block other services for a long time and that is one reason why it is not implemented.

I would propose that you define a shell script on the Meteobridge that uploads you backup file via FTP and that you trigger this shell script from within Meteobridge. Meteobridge supports triggering shell scripts.
