Backup Script for HPSIM on linux

[T.James]

I wrote a short backup script for my linux installation of HP SIM.  

Either copy and paste the following or grab the file below.

Feel free to use/modify this for your own purposes.

# Created by: Tim James - tajames@niu.edu
# Creation date: 8/20/2011

# Simple script to backup the whole lot of HP SIM
# Create a temp directory with all the config file locations already propagated
# Copy all of the existing config files into the temp location
# Dump the postgres DB into the temp location
# tar that beast and call it the current date

# NOTE: this makes use of a .pgpass file in the home directory of the user
# that is going to run the script.

dir_loc=/backup/SIM_Bkup
bkup_loc=/backup
bkup_date=`date +"%Y%m%d"`
bkup_day=`date +"%A"`

# Only save 7 days worth of backups.

if [ "$bkup_day" == "Sunday" ]; then
rm /backup/*
fi

# Create temp locations for files.
