Do I have to include var/cache in the backup? Or is it just ok with:
/var/log
/var/storage

Just want to get this confirmed, so I don't miss anything.

cache isn't needed, it will get regenerated when you restore from backup.

Take care to store everything but cache in var though.

You can use this contrib and set a cronjob for it

Hi,

What do you exactly want to back up ?

Because backuping the var directory will basically only save images, files etc... uploaded via the admin interface (or via front-office if your site is design for this purpose).

I want to backup up everything I need if the disk get destroyed, but not cache which I can compile through the eztc script.
