# backup.sh - version 0.1.1
# rsync-based backup script
#
# changes:
# 0.1.1 [2010-01-19] - fixed backup timestamps
#
# Short description:
# This script makes root filesystem local/remote (NFS, CIFS) backups using rsync.
# It should be running periodically by crontab.
#
# Example line to run script weekly on the first day of the week @ 4:30am:
# 30 4 * * 0 /usr/local/sbin/backup.sh 1> /dev/null
#
# Example config usage:
# BACKUP_EXP=2
# LEAD_ZEROS=3
# Above config will run first backup with current date, eg. 2009-05-12.
# It'll create a directory named 2009-05-12_001 (first revision, 3 leading zeros).
# The next backup after one week will be called 2009-05-19_002.
# We want to store two backups, so the next backup will contain files from 2009-05-12_001 -
# - backup directory will be moved to new date 2009-05-26_003, and then synchronize by rsync.

ADDT_OPTS=yes		# additional pre/post backup commands (eg. remount partition)
EXCLUDE_DIRS="--exclude=$BACKUP_DIR --exclude=/dev --exclude=/proc --exclude=/sys"	# don't backup these directories
