I have a production server running a scheduled task that I simply can't track down.
It seems that it is running dbdump.bash
on a daily basis, but none of the cron files have a reference to that or anything running a back up!
I've tried to grep -r "dbdump.bash" /
to search for the offending job, but no luck so far. The backups are large, and if not manually removed will completely fill up the hard drive.
How can I track this down? Thanks!
Update
Here's the contents of /etc/crontab
:
# /etc/crontab: system-wide crontab
# Unlike any other crontab you don't have to run the `crontab'
# command to install the new version when you edit this file
# and files in /etc/cron.d. These files also have username fields,
# that none of the other crontabs do.
SHELL=/bin/sh
PATH=/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin
# m h dom mon dow user command
