Editring /etc/cron.d/vzdump

I know that file is auto created and edited. But I need make monthly backups so if I edit /etc/cron.d/vzdump file to make monthly backups, will it run fine?

Hi,

the best way is to make an new independent cron file.
you can copy it from the vzdump file and than edit it for your needs.

vzdump file is shorcut of /etc/pve/vzdump.cron So should I make copy of /etc/pve/vzdump.cron ?

My line that I added to vzdump.cron is not deleted after I added and removed task from GUI.
