In fact I'm not asking for such a fine grained setup. I'd be perfectly happy
with only a way to have amandad run scripts before and after backing up only,
whatever the number of DLEs. At least, that's my need: a wrapper over
amandad, not gtar.
For instance, you could have two directories /etc/amandad/before (note the
"d") and /etc/amandad/after with scripts named 00stoporacle, 01stopmysql,
whatever.
I have seen people add this shellscript to crontab to
run the amanda dumps:
#!/bin/sh
ssh [EMAIL PROTECTED] /usr/local/bin/stopdb
amdump daily
ssh [EMAIL PROTECTED] /usr/local/bin/startdb
With an approriate set of private/public keys to avoid password prompts
of course.
But I agree in general that before/after scripts more built into
amanda would be welcome.
