Hey,
you can use the shipped backup script in /opt/zammad/contrib/backup (zammad\_backup.sh).
You can run that with full path via cronjob if needed, you can take a look at the following cronjob article might help you: [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cron#Overview](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cron#Overview)
Please note that our shipped script needs configuration work before, so running it manually before cronjobbing it, is usefull.
