I know you can schedule things like that using "cron", but the question is are you backing it up on your local machine or onto another machine? Also, as a bit of help--in case you were not aware of this capability--RAID can help with some of the data replication in the event of a failure.

Not just the DB but everything, including db as well. I need to compress the files as well. Or any free utility or program would be great as well. I am open to any suggestion. Thank you in advance.
