No backup is set up for Kiyesi to check
Without a backup, a failed disk or one wrong command loses the data for good. If you do have backups, tell Kiyesi where they are written.
Add the backup folder under backups.paths in /etc/kiyesi/config.yamlReferenceThe 22 checks
Backups
Health checkbackups
What it reads
The age of the newest file in each backup folder named in /etc/kiyesi/config.yaml.
Does it need root?
It needs root for part of what it reads. Backup folders are often readable only by root. Without root, that part is skipped and never counted as passed. Run sudo kiyesi scan to include it.
When it passes
The report lists it as passed, in these words:
- Newest backup is age old
What it can find
No backup found in path
The backup folder is set up but holds no files, so the backup job is not writing there.
crontab -l | grep -i backupNewest backup is age old
Backups are expected every limit hours. The last one was written on when.
crontab -l | grep -i backup
