Nagios XI Backups working but not adhearing to day limit

[krobertson71]

I knew that but I think I know where I am confused now.

The local NagiosXI backup is from the last upgrade, which is fine.

I am seeing under /store/backups/mysql/daily backups from the last 6 days.

Is the able to change as well?

Code: Select all

Those database backups are separate from the scheduled backup component, and are part of a cron job run from

/root/scripts/automysqlbackup
and
/root/scripts/autopostgresqlbackup

The location of those backups are specified in the above scripts.

Code: Select all

grep BACKUPDIR /root/scripts/*
automysqlbackup:BACKUPDIR="/store/backups/mysql"
autopostgresqlbackup:BACKUPDIR="/store/backups/postgresql"

Assuming safe to change these?

If so just reply yes and close the thread.

Yes (make sure the permissions are setup correctly), and We'll go ahead and close the thread. Thanks.
