I try to install the software on my VPS.  
This is the server that I have:

PRETTY\_NAME=“Debian GNU/Linux 7 (wheezy)”  
NAME=“Debian GNU/Linux”  
VERSION\_ID=“7”  
VERSION=“7 (wheezy)”  
ID=debian

I added this line:

deb [URL][http://repo.percona.com/apt[/URL]](http://repo.percona.com/apt%5B/URL%5D) wheezy main  
deb-src [URL][http://repo.percona.com/apt[/URL]](http://repo.percona.com/apt%5B/URL%5D) wheezy main

And I run this command: apt-get update  
The result:  
Hit [http://security.debian.org](http://security.debian.org) wheezy/updates Release.gpg

Hit [http://ftp.us.debian.org](http://ftp.us.debian.org) wheezy-updates/main Translation-en/DiffIndex

Then I run this command: apt-get upgrade

If I look at the folder /usr/bin I dont see any files named innobackupex .  
If I run this command: innobackupex --user=USER–password=PW /backups  
I get this error:  
innobackupex: command not found  
Trying this command: /usr/bin/innobackupex --user=USER–password=PW /backups  
Doest work too.

Its seems like the software is not installed.

Hi tomer;

Looks like you still need to actually do the install.

1. Install the key:

```auto

apt-key adv --keyserver keys.gnupg.net --recv-keys 1C4CBDCDCD2EFD2A

```

1. Then install Xtrabackup:

```auto

apt-get install xtrabackup

```

Is there an option to schedule the backups? using cron jobs or something like this?

You can schedule the backups via crontab, you can schedule the backup command or may be write some nice shell script for this purpose.
