# du_backups

# Introduction

This is a collection of scripts that I use to manage a duplicity based backup
solution.

Configuration for the specific environment are located at the top of each
script.

* du-bu
    * The main backup script

* du-check
    * A script to examine the previously completed backups for the current
      host only, on the destination server

* du-all-check
    * Similar to du-check, but checks backups from all hosts

* du-clean
    * A script to clean up backups from the destination server that are no
      longer required

* du-wrapper
    * A simple wrapper script for calling du-bu from a crontab entry. This
      script will perform a full backup on the first day of the month, and an
      incremental backup on any other day.

* du-list
    * A list of directories to be backed up.
