Now i will show you how to schedule our backup process. In Linux we use cron jobs in order to schedule task. By default, rsnapshot comes with <a href="http://www.hackthesec.co.in/search/label/cron">cron </a>file under "/etc/cron.d/rsnapshot", if it’s doesn’t exists create one and add the following lines to it. If rules already exist then you need to remove the "#" from of the scheduling section to enable these values.</div>
