### Backup
|
|
|
|
#### Manual
|
|
|
|
You can use the provided script `helper-scripts/backup_and_restore.sh` to backup mailcow automatically.
|
|
|
|
Please do not copy this script to another location.
|
|
|
|
To run a backup, write "backup" as first parameter and either one or more components to backup as following parameters.
|
|
You can also use "all" as second parameter to backup all components. Append `--delete-days n` to delete backups older than n days.
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
# Syntax:
|
|
# ./helper-scripts/backup_and_restore.sh backup (vmail|crypt|redis|rspamd|postfix|mysql|all|--delete-days)
|
|
|
|
# Backup all, delete backups older than 3 days
|
|
./helper-scripts/backup_and_restore.sh backup all --delete-days 3
|
|
|
|
# Backup vmail, crypt and mysql data, delete backups older than 30 days
|
|
./helper-scripts/backup_and_restore.sh backup vmail crypt mysql --delete-days 30
|
|
|
|
# Backup vmail
|
|
./helper-scripts/backup_and_restore.sh backup vmail
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
The script will ask you for a backup location. Inside of this location it will create folders in the format "mailcow_DATE".
|
|
You should not rename those folders to not break the restore process.
|
|
|
|
To run a backup unattended, define MAILCOW_BACKUP_LOCATION as environment variable before starting the script:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
MAILCOW_BACKUP_LOCATION=/opt/backup /opt/mailcow-dockerized/helper-scripts/backup_and_restore.sh backup all
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
#### Cronjob
|
|
|
|
You can run the backup script regularly via cronjob. Make sure `BACKUP_LOCATION` exists:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
5 4 * * * cd /opt/mailcow-dockerized/; MAILCOW_BACKUP_LOCATION=/mnt/mailcow_backups /opt/mailcow-dockerized/helper-scripts/backup_and_restore.sh backup mysql crypt redis --delete-days 3
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Per default cron sends the full result of each backup operation by email. If you want cron to only mail on error (non-zero exit code) you may want to use the following snippet. Pathes need to be modified according to your setup (this script is a user contribution).
|
|
|
|
This following script may be placed in `/etc/cron.daily/mailcow-backup` - do not forget to mark it as executable via `chmod +x`:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
#!/bin/sh
|
|
|
|
# Backup mailcow data
|
|
# https://mailcow.github.io/mailcow-dockerized-docs/b_n_r_backup/
|
|
|
|
set -e
|
|
|
|
OUT="$(mktemp)"
|
|
export MAILCOW_BACKUP_LOCATION="/opt/backup"
|
|
SCRIPT="/opt/mailcow-dockerized/helper-scripts/backup_and_restore.sh"
|
|
PARAMETERS="backup all"
|
|
OPTIONS="--delete-days 30"
|
|
|
|
# run command
|
|
set +e
|
|
"${SCRIPT}" ${PARAMETERS} ${OPTIONS} 2>&1 > "$OUT"
|
|
RESULT=$?
|
|
|
|
if [ $RESULT -ne 0 ]
|
|
then
|
|
echo "${SCRIPT} ${PARAMETERS} ${OPTIONS} encounters an error:"
|
|
echo "RESULT=$RESULT"
|
|
echo "STDOUT / STDERR:"
|
|
cat "$OUT"
|
|
fi
|
|
```
