# Serverbackup #
This is exercise 6 on lab 5 which is about writing a backup script for your
server.
For this exercise I've chosen to make a backup script for Proxmox, ie take all
This script was written as a part of a Programming & Scripting class.
The script takes a backup of the backup files created by Proxmox, ie take all
the backup files (vzdump-openvz-111-2013\_11\_19-08\_20\_20.tar.lzo and so on)
and copy them to a tape device and an external harddrive.

The first time you run taperotate.sh you'll have to initialize it with the -i N
option where N is the tape you start with. If you change the order of the tapes
later on you can use the -i option again to start over with tape N (the old lines
will be kept though to keep track on the old backups).

### Flowchart, specs and notes ###
You can ignore these files as they are just a part of the inital lab/exercise
for the class and for my own memory.
### Dummyfiles ###
These are some dummy backup files to test the script on. They have the same
format as the real Proxmox created files.
