added my backup scripts

daily-snapshot.sh
···
+
#!/bin/bash
+
#
+
# This script will gzip /mnt/backup/live/
+
# This script assumes /mnt/backup/snapshots/ is where we want to store archives
+
# This script will only keep 7 days worth of archives
+
# -- if you want to change this just change `MAX_BACKUPS`
+
#
+
# My personal setup:
+
# -- has this running daily with cron at 00:30z
+
# -- mounts /mnt/backup to it's own specific NFS share configured for the host
+
#
+
+
MAX_BACKUPS=7

tar -czf "/mnt/backup/snapshots/gwaine.snapshot.`date + "%FT%H%M%S"`.tar.gz" -C /mnt/backup/live .
+
+
COUNT=$(ls -1 /mnt/backup/snapshots/*.tar.gz 2>/dev/null | wc -l)
+
+
if [ "$COUNT" -gt $MAX_BACKUPS]; then
+
# why not just delete the oldest file only Trey???
+
# well I'll tell you why! If I want to change MAX_BACKUPS from 7 to 3
+
# I'll have a whole bunch of extra archives I don't want to keep
+
EXTRA=$((COUNT - MAX_BACKUPS))
+
ls -1T /mnt/backup/snapshots/*.tar.gz | tail -n "$EXTRA" | xargs rm -f

hourly-backup.sh
···
+
#!/bin/bash
+
#
+
# This script will rsync the entire filesystem to /mnt/backup/live/
+
# This script assumes /mnt/backup/live/ is where we want to backup files
+
#
+
# My personal setup:
+
# -- has this running hourly with cron
+
# -- mounts /mnt/backup to it's own specific NFS share configured for the host
+
#
+
# !! WARNING SLOW FIRST RUN !!
+
# the first run will be slow so run this first before setting up the hourly job
