          Create a shell script that will dump the Redis database

          cd ~ mkdir redi-backups-script cd redis-backups-script nano redis_backups-script.sh

          Paste the script below:

          #!/bin/bash rdb_file="/Place-directory-of-rdb-here/redis/dump.rdb" redis_cli="/usr/bin/redis-cli" DIR=`date +%d-%m-%y` DEST=~/redis_backups/$DIR mkdir $DEST echo save| $redis_cli exit 1

          Set script to executable:

          chmod +x ~/scripts/redis_backups-script.sh

          Create a cron to run daily:

          Then create a cron job to run the script every day at midnight:

          crontab -e 0 0 * * * ~/redis-backups-script/redis_backup.sh

          Restore RDB backup

          Disable Append Only in the config:

          nano /etc/redis/redis.conf appendonly no

          Stop redis:

          sudo service redis-server stop

          Restore the redis backup:

          rename the rdb file you wish sudo cp /home/redis/dump.rdb /home/redis/dump.rdb.bak

          You can then copy the backup rdb file as follows:

          sudo cp /redis_backups/------/dump.rdb /home/redis/dump.rdb

          Apply the proper permissions to the dump.rdb file:

          sudo chmod 660 /home/redis/dump.rdb

          Re-starting Redis server

          sudo service redis-server start

          zab-6sql.png

          sudo dpkg -i mysql-apt-config_0.8.30-1_all.deb

          Error on this new install, where lsb-release is not installed

          zab7sql-error.png

          apt-get install lsb-release

          zab7lsb.png

          Try again…

          dpkg -i mysql-apt-config_0.8.30-1_all.deb

          Error, gnupg not installed

          zab7gnupgerror.png

          apt install gnupg2

          zab7gnupg2.png

          zab7sqltui.png

          zab7sql.png

          I had to list upgradable packages :

          apt-list --upgradable

          Which spit out : mysql-common/unknown 8.4.4-1debian12 all [upgradable from: 5.8+1.1.0]

          Then installed mysql-common

          apt-get install mysql-common

          zabbix-7-sqlgoofs.png

          Had to uninstall Mariadb to resolve these conflicts

          apt remove mariadb-client-core

          Then install mysql-server:

          apt install mysql-server

          zab7-sql-common.png

          zab7-sql-rootpass.png

          Enter your password, twice

          Now enter mysql by typing :

          mysql -u root -p

          zab7-mysql-enter.png

          Enter the following command individually Where ‘password’ is where you type in your actual own password

          mysql> create database zabbix character set utf8mb4 collate utf8mb4_bin; mysql> create user zabbix@localhost identified by 'password'; mysql> grant all privileges on zabbix.* to zabbix@localhost; mysql> set global log_bin_trust_function_creators = 1; mysql> quit;

          Populate the database with zabbix script

          zcat /usr/share/zabbix/sql-scripts/mysql/server.sql.gz | mysql --default-character-set=utf8mb4 -uzabbix -p zabbix mysql --u root -p set global log_bin_trust_function_creators = 0; quit;

          Edit file /etc/zabbix/zabbix_server.conf You can use nano

          nano /etc/zabbix/zabbix_server.conf

          Uncomment the DBPassword section, and type your password

          zabbix-dbpassword.png

          Then hold ctrl and tap x, it will ask if you want to save changes.

          Enable services:

          systemctl enable zabbix-server zabbix-agent2 nginx php8.2-fpm systemctl restart zabbix-server zabbix-agent2 nginx php8.2-fpm

          Check that zabbix service has started

          journalctl -xeu zabbix-server.service

          zabbix7startjob.png

          Delete the 'default site in nginx

          sudo rm -rf /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/default

          Make sure the symbolic link to the zabbix nginx file is present

          ln -s /etc/zabbix/nginx.conf /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/zabbix.conf

          Check that the zabbix nginx file is in the includes in nginx config

          nano /etc/nginx/nginx.conf

          Look for :

          include /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/*

          Now restart nginx

          systemctl restart nginx

          Hit the browser and type in the IP (or URL that you may have put in the zabbix nginx config file)

          Unable to negotiate with 10.10.1.35 port 22: no matching host key type found. Their offer: ssh-rsa,ssh-dss

          While attempting ssh this error is generally due to mismatched versions of ssh, where an up to date version is attempting to access an older version

          Add the following to your command :

          The proper way:

          ssh -o KexAlgorithms=diffie-hellman-group14-sha1 -oHostKeyAlgorithms=+ssh-dss 10.10.1.35

          The cheap way:

          Example :

          ssh -oHostKeyAlgorithms=+ssh-dss 10.10.1.35

          or ssh -oHostKeyAlgorithms=+ssh-dss user@10.10.1.35

          This can be added to the ~/.ssh/config file

          Screen recording can use webm as their format, it can be more simple to use a gif to embed into a website or forum, than adding scripts to host different video format.

          In this case I grabbed a screen record of the progress for writing zeros to a hard drive with dd

          Use ffmpeg to convert webm to gif:

          First create a pallet:

          Move into the directory which the webm is located, or type in the path

          Where ‘dd.webm’ is the screen recording

          ffmpeg -y -i dd.webm -vf palettegen palette.png

          Output:

          dd-ffmpeg.png

          Then convert the webm to gif:

          ffmpeg -y -i dd.webm -i palette.png -filter_complex paletteuse -r 10 dd.gif

          dd-webm-2.png

          This is what I ended up with, looks like any image of any alien on the interwebz, as if shot through a potato, some tweaking of the command is in my future. None the less.

          dd.gif
