rdautoback — Tool for making coherent Rivendell backups
rdautoback(8) is a command-line tool used for for creating coherent backups of the data (database+audiostore) used by the Rivendell Radio Automation System.
rdautoback(8) takes one or more arguments; each the path name of a storage mount point that has been configured in fstab(5). Upon startup, it will attempt to mount the filesystem corresponding to each specified mount point and make a copy of the following Rivendell data elements:
The Rivendell database specified by the current rd.conf(5) configuration file.
The contents of the Rivendell audiostore, located at
/var/snd.
If a previous backup is already present on the target backup device, it will be incrementally updated so as to be a precise backup of the current data. After completing the backup, rdautoback(8) will automatically unmount the backup device and remove its mount point.
