[BackupPC-users] New: BackupPC_extract

2011-04-29 Thread Nick van IJzendoorn
Good midday,

Since we weekly want to store all backups on an external HD in 7zip
format I created this script to exract the latest backup so I can
later add it to a 7zip archive. You might also enjoy it.

Cheers,

I may find something like this useful. I'm assuming since you are
zipping it separtely that his just exports a copy of the backup with
all files accessible? (no tar?)

Thanks,
Richard

Yes, it just rebuilds the whole backup you specified in the current
work directory.

Enjoy!

One minor nit pick. The header still makes 5 references to zip
archive which I presume is left over from the original script you
based yours on. It would probably be better to just remove zip from
those instances.

Updated, thanks for noticing. I also removed the time limit since we
don't have the limit on a regular dump.
