35              modules reported success.
36

38       reportwarning
39              If  set to 'yes', a report email will be generated even if there

58
59
60       when   When  to  process  each  configuration file. The value used here
61              will be applied for each configuration file. It is  possible  to
62              override  this  "when" in each configuration file, see also sec‐
63              tion "Scheduling" in backup.d(5).
64
65              For example:
66
67                when = sundays at 02:00
68                when = 30th at 22
69                when = 30 at 22:00
70                when = everyday at 01            <-- the default
71                when = Tuesday at 05:00
72
73              These values for 'when' are equivalent:
74
75                when = tuesday at 05:30
76                when = TUESDAYS at 05
77
78              These values for 'when' are invalid:
79
80                when = tuesday at 2am
81                when = tuesday at 2
82                when = tues at 02
83
84
85       vservers
86              If  you  are  using  Linux-Vservers  (http://linux-vserver.org),
87              there are some special capabilities that different handlers have
88              to make vserver backups easier.  See the  example  configuration
89              files  for  each handler to configure the vserver specific vari‐
90              ables.
