Configuring Norg

Norg is configured using a TOML format configuration file.
There is an Example Configuration File on the norgbackup website that you can use as a base to create your own backups.

Many backups from one system

You can run multiple different backups on the same system by specifying different configuration files using the -c command line parameter.

Scheduling

Norg can be scheduled to run using your system's task scheduler. For the sake of this example, we are using cron to run a backups every day at 8pm and 10pm.

0 20 * * * norg -c /home/me/myconfig.toml
0 22 * * * norg -c /home/me/myotherbackup.toml

This concept should be transferrable to any other scheduling tool.
