Intro
I use Shell script for all steps to automate Arangodb backup and update from a to z!
Install the last version of Arangodb on Ubuntu 18.04
For installation, you should visit the Arango website to check the last version of this database.
Now the last version is 3.6.5-1.
For installing this version and configuration web interface run the below sh file on your server,
in this example, I'm testing this script on the AWS EC2 server.
WARNING!
You should stop arangodb3 and turn your application into maintenance mode!
#!/bin/bash
sudo systemctl stop arangodb3.service
sudo cp /etc/arangodb3/ ~/arango-config-backup
curl -OL https://download.arangodb.com/arangodb36/DEBIAN/Release.key
sudo apt-key add - < Release.key
echo 'deb https://download.arangodb.com/arangodb36/DEBIAN/ /' | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/arangodb.list
sudo apt-get install apt-transport-https
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install arangodb3=3.6.5-1

Arangodb backup and upload to s3

Add systemd service for life!
It's a really good feature to automated tasks with system service to manage all services separately.
1- First you go to /etc/systemd/system and add backup.servive and backup.timer
2- Backup service file for the run backup script
3- Timer for the run backup script and specific time.
[Unit]
Description=Schedule to run backup service
[Timer]
OnCalendar=
OnCalendar=*-*-* 02:30:00
Unit=backup.service
[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target
[Unit]
Description=Run sportbook Arango DB backup script [Service]
[Service]
ExecStart=/bin/bash /home/ubuntu/backup/backup.sh
After creating these two files in the system you must restart the service like below:
sudo systemctl daemon-reload
sudo systemctl start backup.time
sudo systemctl status backup.time
Now you have an automatic backup system with a timer on your server.
