Sure, I can try to help. Backing up your OS regularly and maintaining multiple copies can be achieved through scheduled automated processes or using reliable backup tools. Let me know if you'd like step-by-step guidance on setting that up.

I haven’t handled it much personally, but a possible approach is to create a cronjob that runs daily and copies the necessary files or folders. On another point, why back up your operating system every day three times? That sounds a bit excessive to me—does it really make that much difference?

I'm setting up my system and have experienced some issues by sticking to tutorials that don't work well for others.

I don't recall the exact setup, but searching for cron should help you find the right scripts and backups.

I think I'll create a script that adds files into a tar archive and relocates it somewhere.

On CD it stores the backup of the apt package. Bacula keeps user files for backup.
