# Example configuration file for backing up a client using rrb.

# The root of the files to be backuped. Can be on a remote host or localhost.
# Will be interpreted by rsync.

# To backup a local directory (and create an additional directory level at the
# destination):
#SRC=/etc

# In order not to create an additional directory level at the destination add a
# trailing slash:
#SRC=/etc/

# Remote access via remote shell. Note that you don't need to add a trailing
# slash. Spaces in remote sources have to be escaped, so the remote shell can
# interpret them. My tip: Don't use spaces at all:
#SRC=example:'file\ name\ with\ spaces'

# Remote access via rsync daemon. No need to add a trailing slash on remote
# connections:
#SRC=example::module

# The destination directory to put the backups in:
#DEST_DIR=/backup/example

# -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
# Optional options
# -----------------------------------------------------------------------------

# The path of a file that specifies the excludes. New line for every file to be
# excluded. (Directories are files, too.) See man 1 rsync for more detail on
# the layout of the file.
#EXCLUDES_FILE=/etc/rrb/excludes.example

# Same with spaces:
#EXCLUDES_FILE="/path with spaces/excludes.example"

# A command that will be executed before running the backup. Can be used to
# mount a filesystem.
#BEFORE_CMD="echo 'before'"

# A command that will be executed after running the backup. Also if the backup
# failed. Can be used to mount a filesystem that has been mounted before. Note
# that you can't use variables to find out whether the filesystem was mounted
# before BEFORE_CMD.
#AFTER_CMD="echo 'after'"

# Will only be executed if the backup failed. Might be handy to notify the
# admin.
#FAIL_CMD="echo 'fail'"

# Will only be executed if the backup succeeded.
#SUCCESS_CMD="echo 'success'"

# Set additional rsync options. In this example we want to preserves hard
# links. Preserving hard links is very expensive, and we don't want to hinder
# the users of the client too much, so we set the niceness of the remote rsync
# to a high value.
#RSYNC_OPTS=( --hard-links --rsync-path='nice -n19 rsync' )

# Specify a remote shell for rsync. There are more rsync-related options, see
# man 1 rsync.
