Re: [Duplicity-talk] Retension

[Denis Klimov]

Hello, Henrik.

I using this script for backup to S3:

#!/bin/sh
export AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID="SOMEKEYID"
export AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY="SOMEACCESSKEY"
DUPLICITY_OPT="--num-retries 5 \
--tempdir /var/tmp/duplicity \
--volsize 250 \
--s3-european-buckets \
--s3-use-new-style \
--asynchronous-upload \
--no-encryption \
--force"
DUPLICITY="nice -n19 ionice -c3 duplicity"

SOURCE="/var/my_data"
TARGET="s3+http://my-backup-bucket/some_data_name";

echo "### Backup ###"
$DUPLICITY --full-if-older-than "`date -d '-10 days' --iso-8601`" 
$DUPLICITY_OPT $SOURCE $TARGET

echo "### Remove old ###"
$DUPLICITY remove-all-but-n-full 1 $DUPLICITY_OPT $TARGET

echo "### Cleanup ###"
$DUPLICITY cleanup $DUPLICITY_OPT $TARGET

unset AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID
unset AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY
