NAME¶
storeBackupMount.pl - runs storeBackup backing up to an nfs mount
SYNOPSIS¶
storeBackupMount.pl -c configFile [-s server] [-l logFile] [-d]
[-p pathToStoreBackup] [-k killTime] [-m] mountPoints...
DESCRIPTION¶
This script does the following:
- - checks an nfs server with ping
- - mounts that server via a list of mount points
- - starts storeBackup (with a config file)
- - umounts that server
OPTIONS¶
- --server, -s
-
name or ip address of the nfs server
default is localhost
- --configFile, -c
-
configuration file for storeBackup.
if option 'logFile' is set in the configration file,
that log file is read online, if it is different from -l
- --logFile, -l
-
logFile for this process.
default is STDOUT.
you can log into the same logfile as storeBackup
- --debug, -d
-
generate some debug messages
- --pathStbu, -p
-
path to storeBackup.pl
- --killTime -k
-
time until storeBackup.pl will be killed.
default is 365 days.
the time range has to be specified in format 'dhms', e.g.
10d4h means 10 days and 4 hours
- --keepExistingMounts, -m
-
if a mount already exists, do not umount after
running storeBackup
- mountPoints
-
List of mount points needed to perform the backup.
This must be a list of paths which have to be
defined in /etc/fstab.
-
if you add 'ro,' or 'rw,' to the beginning of a mount
point, you can overwrite that option set in /etc/fstab
example:
ro,/filesSystemToRead
will mount /fileSystemToRead read only, even if the
corresponding entry in /etc/fstab mounts it read write
only root is allowed to use this feature!
EXIT STATUS¶
- 0 -> everything is ok
- 1 -> error from storeBackup
- 2 -> error from storeBackupMount
- 3 -> error from both programs
