# into subdirectories named after the day of the week, and the current
# full backup goes into a directory called "current"
# tridge@linuxcare.com
# directory to backup
BDIR=/home/$USER
# excludes file - this contains a wildcard pattern per line of files to exclude
EXCLUDES=$HOME/cron/excludes
# the name of the backup machine
BSERVER=owl
# your password on the backup server
export RSYNC_PASSWORD=XXXXXX
########################################################################
BACKUPDIR=`date +%A`
OPTS="--force --ignore-errors --delete-excluded --exclude-from=$EXCLUDES
--delete --backup --backup-dir=/$BACKUPDIR -a"
export PATH=$PATH:/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/local/bin
# the following line clears the last weeks incremental directory
[ -d $HOME/emptydir ] || mkdir $HOME/emptydir
rsync --delete -a $HOME/emptydir/ $BSERVER::$USER/$BACKUPDIR/
rmdir $HOME/emptydir
# now the actual transfer
rsync $OPTS $BDIR $BSERVER::$USER/current
2、备份至一个空闲的硬盘
#!/bin/sh
export PATH=/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin
LIST="rootfs usr data data2"
for d in $LIST; do
mount /backup/$d
rsync -ax --exclude fstab --delete /$d/ /backup/$d/
umount /backup/$d
done
DAY=`date "+%A"`
rsync -a --delete /usr/local/apache /data2/backups/$DAY
rsync -a --delete /data/solid /data2/backups/$DAY
3、对vger.rutgers.edu的cvs树进行镜像
#!/bin/bash
cd /var/www/cvs/vger/
PATH=/usr/local/bin:/usr/freeware/bin:/usr/bin:/bin
RUN=`lps x | grep rsync | grep -v grep | wc -l`
if [ "$RUN" -gt 0 ]; then
echo already running
exit 1
fi
rsync -az vger.rutgers.edu::cvs/CVSROOT/ChangeLog $HOME/ChangeLog
sum1=`sum $HOME/ChangeLog`
sum2=`sum /var/www/cvs/vger/CVSROOT/ChangeLog`
if [ "$sum1" = "$sum2" ]; then
echo nothing to do
exit 0
fi
rsync -az --delete --force vger.rutgers.edu::cvs/ /var/www/cvs/vger/
exit 0
4、利用find的一种巧妙方式
rsync -avR remote:'`find /home -name "*.[ch]"`' /tmp/
可以用这种方法列出需要备份的文件列表——这种方法似乎比较少人用到。
