UrBackup is an efficient and user-friendly client/server backup system that provides image and file backups for Windows and Linux systems. In this tutorial, we will walk you through the process of installing UrBackup on EndeavourOS Latest.
Before we start installing UrBackup, we need to ensure that our system is up-to-date. To update your system packages, open the terminal window and run the following command:
sudo pacman -Syu
Enter your password when prompted and wait for the update process to complete. If there are any updates available, the system will download and install them automatically.
Once the system is up-to-date, you can proceed with installing UrBackup. To do this, follow the steps below:
Open the terminal window and run the following command to add the official UrBackup repository to your system:
echo -e "[urbackup]\nSigLevel = Optional TrustAll\nServer = https://www.urbackup.org/downloads/server/latest/archlinux/\$arch\n" | sudo tee -a /etc/pacman.conf
Update the package index by running the following command:
sudo pacman -Sy
Finally, install UrBackup by running:
sudo pacman -S urbackup-server
This command will install the UrBackup server and all the necessary dependencies on your system.
After installing UrBackup, you need to configure it to meet your backup needs. To do this, follow the steps below:
Open the terminal window and run the following command to start the UrBackup server:
sudo systemctl start urbackup-server
Enable the UrBackup server to start automatically at system boot by running the following command:
sudo systemctl enable urbackup-server
Finally, open your web browser and navigate to http://localhost:55414. This will bring up the UrBackup web interface, where you can configure your backup settings.
We recommend that you read the UrBackup documentation to learn more about the configuration options and set up backup schedules according to your requirements.
Congratulations! You have successfully installed UrBackup on EndeavourOS Latest. You can now set up your backup schedules and enjoy the benefits of automated backups using UrBackup.
