Hi!
Following up on a old question of mine about daily backup tools I did
follow the advice and am using borg successfully. So thank you for that:
very easy to setup and works great.
However wanting to do that daily automatically from my laptop to a local
network drive I looked for a way to start the backup like 10 minutes
after I switched on the PC and only once a day which led me to anacron.
How about a systemd timer that is fired fired 10 minutes after boot.
Its ExecStart could call a script that checks for a touched file ( a
semaphore ). If the semaphore is not from today it would call the
backup program. On successful completion it would refresh the semaphore.
