It looks like mlocate.db is updated on command of systemd. I want to have updatedb create two databases, one indexing my backup device (/srv/UpdateDevice), which is a removable filesystem containing a complete backup of (the rest of) my system, and the other indexing the complete system, including the backup device. If mlocate.db were created via a cron command this would be easy. Since actually the command comes from systemd, which I'm not familiar with, it's not so easy. Any hints?
