MonetDB auto-backup mechanic problem
I'm trying to set up mechanism that will automatically create database backup.
The idea is to create a script that will be executed by crontab. Seems easy but I'm struggling with the following problems:
- I cannot use
msqldump, because it needs password input from the user; - I've tried physical copy, but after removing database or dbfarm and restoring them, monetdb and monetdbd couldn't start "restored" database and dbfarm;
Can I bypass above problems and/or are there other solutions?

presumably you've seen the MonetDB page about doing a physical file copy? monetdb.org/Documentation/UserGuide/FastDumpRestore

Create .monetdb file in the home directory as below:
cat << EOF > $HOME/.monetdb
user=monetdb
password=monetdb
EOF
Replace the above content with your monetdb username and password.
Change the file permission to prevent other user from reading it [optional]
Run:
export msqldump=$HOME/.monetdb
echo 'export msqldump=$HOME/.monetdb' >> $HOME/.bashrc
After making above changes, I have ran the below mysqldump command, it doesn't ask user to input password.
mysqldump -d[database-name] > [sql_dump_backup_path]
