LizardFS Snapshots And Backups ============================== Creates a lizardfs snapshot of all sources to a destination. If `--del` is specified, only the given number of snapshots is kept, older snapshots are deleted. To create regular snapshots on a daily base, just run: sudo cp lizardfs-snapshots.sh /etc/cron.daily/lizardfs-snapshots If `lizardfs-snapshots` is run from a `cron.daily`, `cron.hourly`, `cron. monthly` or `cron.weekly` directory, the periodity is automatically appended to the snapshot name, and the expiry is set meaningfull. Otherwise the name is `manual` and nothing is expired by default. You can create a configuration file, specifiying some defaults, e.g. `/etc/lizardfs-snapshots.conf`: SOURCES=( /var/volumes/configs /var/volumes/volumes ) DESTINATION=/var/volumes/backup/snapshots MONTHLY_DEL=13 Try: `lizardfs-snapshots.sh --help`
