How to demo

Present the implemented script and describe what is backed up. Using comments in the script might be useful.

Design

• Create a script that :
  • Copies all files that should be backed up in a /backup/%y-%m-%d/ folder
    • all backup scripts
    • dan-server:/sophie-project/sophie2/ - the trac project
    • dan-server:/sophie-project/repo/ - the repository
    • dan-server:/etc/apache2/ - apache2 configuration
    • all MySql tables. See Dzver:/backup/go.sh for more information.
  • Creates an ISO file /backup/%Y-%m-%d.iso
  • Burns the image to CD.

Implementation

• Download: dan-server:/backup/backup.sh

The script does:

• Copy backup scripts to the backup folder
• Copy Trac Project
• Copy Repository
• backup tables
• backup apache
• write to disc

Make a back up at the end of the sprint. The backup CD is created at 2008-09-30 ^{This information is also included as comments in the script}
