chmod +x ~/scripts/redis_backups-script.shCreate 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.shRestore RDB backup
Disable Append Only in the config:
nano /etc/redis/redis.conf appendonly noStop redis:
sudo service redis-server stopRestore the redis backup:
rename the rdb file you wish sudo cp /home/redis/dump.rdb /home/redis/dump.rdb.bak

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 10.10.1.35The cheap way:
Example :
ssh -oHostKeyAlgorithms=+ssh-dss 10.10.1.35or ssh -oHostKeyAlgorithms=+ssh-dss user@10.10.1.35
This can be added to the ~/.ssh/config file
Host my-server HostName 10.10.1.35 HostKeyAlgorithms=+ssh-dss
