Backup to Your Server

This script runs on the remote backup server. Prepare your OECP public IPs in the file ip_list.txt.

Warning: After the backup, all the transferred files will be deleted on the OECP nodes. You can change this option in the backup_toRun.sh.

Run the Script

Configure your ip_list.txt first, and fill in your public IPs to backup.

cd backup
bash ./backup_toRun.sh [path to store your docker] [file of ips] [date to backup]

The default value for [date to backup] is all the valid dates on the OECP nodes.

Example

cd backup
bash ./backup_toRun.sh /myBackup ip_list.txt 20231001

We backup on a daily schedule with the help of crontab.

We present an example of crontab configuration, and please change the paths of scripts and backup files in this example.

SHELL=/bin/bash
0 0 * * * /bin/bash /deployment/backup/backup_toRun.sh /deployment/backup/ip_list.txt $(date -d -1day +"%Y%m%d") >> /myBackup/logs
