[linux] backing up.. using backerupper.
http://www.bluelavalamp.net/backerupper/
I am using backerupper.
The files i need to remember are /etc/backerupper.conf
***********************************************
BACKUP_DIR=/home/backup
TMP_DIR=/home/backup
#FINAL_CMD=scp %s www:/tmp
USE_BZIP2
#USE_ZIP_UPDATE
INCLUDE DIRECTORIES
/home/papers
INCLUDE FILES
EXCLUDE DIRECTORIES
EXCLUDE FILES
END
**************************************************
If someone wants to backup his directories, i just have to add it below
/home/papers
Also the backerupper programme is stored in /usr/local/bin
and i have set a cronjob for root as follows.
10 0 * * * /usr/local/bin/backerupper -i -d /etc/backerupper.conf 1>
/dev/null 2> /dev/null
which will run an incremental backup everyday and place in
/home/backup
I have not yet tested this system.. Will come to know only tommorrow.
