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.
