Subject: Re: [BackupPC-users] Is there a command line reporting toolfor
backuppc?
Hi Everyone,
I too would like a copy of any script that would enable backup status email
reports. Thats the one major feature that I feel is missing in the main
program. Our tape backup software sends us a report every night and it would
be nice to have backuppc do the same. I also have noticed that backup pc will
send email alerts on some errors but not all.
Thank you!

Holger, thanks for sending me the updated script. Kudos to you and
Alexander for writing it.
I wish I knew perl.......it would be so handy ;)
I was wondering if you could help out with two additional
changes........
I want to run this script as a DumpPostUserCmd such that i can email a
small report with some detail about what the backup did.
The output of the script is great, but it runs for all hosts, I'd like
it to only run for the host that is being backed up. How can i make it
use say $1 as an argument for the host (i.e. using $client from the
DumpPostUserCmd)??
Second.....
if it shows xfer errors how easy would it be to append the xferlog to
the email?
Jean-Michel Beuken wrote the attached scripts (Re: [BackupPC-users]
Email summary after backup 19/10/2007) which do email reporting
and attach the xferlog if errors are detected.
If your script and Jean-Michel's were combined i think we'd have a
great
little summary report to accompany an email on success or failure after
the backup for a host.
Thanks in advance for your assistance,
Regards,
Les
