Subject: Cron job doing VACUUM and BACUP from root
Date: Sat, 04 Nov 2000 13:29:53 -0600
Message-ID: <3A0463B1.4E8A3CB6@aajs.com> (raw)
Have been searching around the last two days to find some scripts or
cron jobs to automate backup and vacuum.
I'm running a small db on PSQL 7.02 / RH 7 and keeping my login as
root.
I know how to set up cron from root and I believe it should be
possible to call the job from root, or am I totally wrong.
For what I have been doing I only get FATAL 1 errors, believe that's
from not being in su postgres ?
Any help and assistance (step by step) to a novice would be helpful.
Regards,
Aage J. Skjolingstad
