Automated Backup

Starting from Lucy 4.6 has been added the ability to create and configure automatic backups. The administrator can configure automatic backups that are stored in local directory /opt/phishing/files/db-backups

The Automated Backup Settings is available under the Settings menu:

Automated Backup Settings

You can select which components of the system should be backed up. Click "Deselect All" to turn off the backup task:

  1. Database - creates an SQL dump of the whole Lucy database;
  2. Files - creates an archived copy of the folder “/opt/phishing/files” that contain campaigns data, templates and etc. (it is recommended to use with Database);
  3. Rainloop - creates an archived copy of settings and all folders of the Mail Manager;
  4. Config - creates an archived copy of Lucy's configuration files (web server, mail server and etc.);
  5. Code - creates an archived copy of Lucy's source code and executables.

The frequency of running the backup tasks can be set to various intervals:

  1. Daily
  2. Weekly
  3. Monthly
  4. Yearly

You can choose a convenient time to run the backup task. Depending on the components selected for backup, the task may take a long time, so we recommend that you schedule the time when the server load is minimal (usually at night).

Specify the days when the backup task should be run. Days of week or month: 1-7 for weekly, 1-31 for monthly. Days of the year: 1-12 (month numbers); 1-31 (days of the month) for yearly.
