Force remote backups?

I have just added a remote backup location and I want backups to run now, is there a way to do so? Also it says daily and weekly but does not specify which hour or day of the week backups will take place

To force backup you can run via command line

python /usr/local/CyberCP/plogical/backupSchedule.py

Cron for daily backups is:

0 3 * * 0-6 root python /usr/local/CyberCP/plogical/backupSchedule.py

Weekly backups:

0 3 * * 3 root python /usr/local/CyberCP/plogical/backupSchedule.py

There are some errors:

/home/xx/backup/backup-xx-04-36-07-Sat-Mar-2018.tar.gz: No such file or directory
/home/xx/backup/backup-xx-05-38-48-Sat-Mar-2018.tar.gz: No such file or directory

However, files are indeed there,also, dispite being remote backups it keeps the backups on the local machine as well? What’s the point of remote backups if local backups will be kept as well?

I guess it’s fine for bumping old thread here?

I’ve been waiting for more than 24 hours, but scheduled remote backup seems not working on my VPS. Force the backup through command line is worked.

Should I manually add the cron job for daily backups?

Do you see a cron job in /etc/crontab?

It’s not there. Centos 7.5 x64.
