I have create a backup directory using FS Technique.

```
 PUT _snapshot/databackup {
   "type": "fs", 
   "settings": {
      "location": "/mount/backups/my_backup" 
   } }

```

Then:

```
 PUT _snapshot/my_backup/snapshot_2 {
   "indices": "completedata" }

```

Its working.But when my database table update or insert new records backup not update automatically.How Can i Do this auto  
backup after 1 day or by defining time.

Thanks in advance.

You can set up a cron job to run a script like this every day

#!/bin/sh

> curl -XPUT "localhost:9200/\_snapshot/my\_s3\_repository/$(date  
> +"%Y.%m.%d.%H.%M.%S")?wait\_for\_completion=true?pretty"
