Automatic Backup doesn't run

Hi!

I setup a daily automatic backup via YaST. At the given time, nothing happens. What did I do wrong? It’s kinda strange that I need to type in the archive file manually cause the file browser requires an already existing archive file, which just doesn’t exit for a new backup profile. I specified a different very large disk as archive tmp folder. Manual backup worked fine, just the automatic one doesn’t run. I’d appreciate any help.

cheers,

post your crontab entry

For some reason it worked now the day after. Sry for the noise then, but now having a backup archive, I realize it’s just a plain system and packages backup. How do I set up to archive a specific folder and all its contents automatically? When I try to restore my archive with YaST, it doesn’t list any archive contents but is exactly as big as my root partition.

Cheers,

Phong

install unison from YaST, the perfect backup system (for me)
cheers!
