Manually Delete Scheduled Backups

Post by geoffmyers »

Is there a manual/cli method to delete backups scheduled via the UI? We are having an issue with the php ssh module and want to stop the backups from occurring. Because of the issue with the module we are unable to get to the page and delete the backup schedule.

Thanks,

Geoff

If you want them to stop occurring you could rename the script it runs:

Code: Select all

mv /usr/local/nagiosxi/scripts/backup_xi.sh /usr/local/nagiosxi/scripts/backup_xi.sh.old
Then when you're ready to resume backups:

Code: Select all

mv /usr/local/nagiosxi/scripts/backup_xi.sh.old /usr/local/nagiosxi/scripts/backup_xi.sh
