Once the deb package is created, one can use it to install tisbackup on a debian machine. The command is:
apt install ./tis-tisbackup-1-2-0.170-deb11.deb
Note that the version numbers might be different depending on the system you used to build the package.
Then create a directory where to backup the files from your machines. The default is /backup.
This can be changed in the configuration file /etc/tis/tisback-config.ini. Usually this
directory is mounted from a shared ressource on a NAS with great capacity.
Configure your backup jobs:
cd /etc/tis
cp tisbackup-config.ini.sample tisbackup-config.ini
vi tisbackup-config.ini
After this, one have to generate the public and private certificates, as root:
cd
ssh-keygen -t rsa -b 2048
(press enter for each step)
Then propagate the public certificate on the machines targetted for backup:
ssh-copy-id -i /root/.ssh/id_rsa.pub root@machine1
ssh-copy-id -i /root/.ssh/id_rsa.pub root@machine2
etc.
Eventually modify /etc/cron.d/tisbackup for your needs.
Finalize the installation with:
tisbackup -d backup
systemctl start tisbackup_gui
systemctl start tisbackup_huey
You can then see the result in your browser: http://backup-server-name:8080
