Various backup scripts for backing up your Shared Hosting account on Kaizen Gardens Shared Hosting service. Can also be used for backing up data on Joyent SmartMachines and TextDrive's legacy Shared Hosting service.
Currenty expects to be run under SmartOS zones (useful if you're on a Kaizen Gardens Shared Hosting account on SmartOS or a Joyent SmartMachine).
Best to use seperate private/public key-pairs to authenticate to different services.
In ~/.ssh/config use something like:
Host example.strongspace.com
IdentityFile ~/.ssh/id_rsa-strongspace
Expects a ~/.my.cnf file to be configured:
[client]
user = username
password = password
MYSQL_DAYS_TO_KEEP=14
| Key | Type | Description | Example |
|---|---|---|---|
| MYSQL_DAYS_TO_KEEP | string | Number of days worth of backups to store (it removes files older than X days based on the file modification time) | 14 |
Expects a ~/.pgpass file to be configured.
PGSQL_DAYS_TO_KEEP=14
| Key | Type | Description | Example |
|---|---|---|---|
| PGSQL_DAYS_TO_KEEP | string | Number of days worth of backups to store (it removes files older than X days based on the file modification time) | 14 |
Presently supports backing up to a remote SFTP location.
#
# Backup Host
#
BACKUP_OFFSITE_ENABLED=yes
BACKUP_HOST=sftp.example.com
BACKUP_USER=username
BACKUP_REMOTE_DIR=/path/to/backups/
RSYNC_OPTS=--delete-after
| Key | Type | Description | Example |
|---|---|---|---|
| BACKUP_OFFSITE_ENABLED | string | Is offsite backup syncing enabled | yes |
| BACKUP_HOST | string | Hostname or IP Address of the server where files are backed up to | sftp.siberia.co.za |
| BACKUP_USER | string | Username on the server specified in BACKUP_HOST | jacques |
| BACKUP_REMOTE_DIR | string | The remote diretory where files are uploaded to | /users/home/jacques/remote-backups/joey/ |
| RSYNC_OPTS | string | Specifies options to rsync. To do a "dry run" use --dry-run. | --delete-after |
Generate a public/private key-pair without a passphrase so that backups can be uploaded offsite without prompting to enter a password or a pass phrase to unlock the ssh private key.
ssh-keygen -t rsa -b 4096 -N ''
You may want to store this to generated key-pair to ~/.ssh/id_rsa-strongspace for a public/private key-pair you just use with StrongSpace.
Copy config.example to config so that the configuration can be sourced by the various scripts.
