Im using this script to save a backup to a NAS, however i want to print the result to a file that later can be mailed to me.
Code:
tar --totals -czf - /var/www | ssh user@host "cat > /backup_path/`date "+%Y-%m-%d"`.tar.gz"
i have tried just adding ">> logfile.txt" at the end of the command, but that obviously does not work. How should i do this?
im trying to output a list of running processes via a shell script. At the moment i got this which outputs the processes to a text file called out.
echo $(ps aux) >>out
The problem is though, the processes are all just one big block of text which makes it hard to read. Does anyone know how to sort the output to a text file so that it prints to the text file at 1 process per line? I know its probably simple but im very new to linux.

I'm having a slight dilemma on reading data from a text file and outputting it into a table then displaying it. Basically I'm writing a shell script that takes information from text files then outputs the data into a table with 4 headings. The extracting of the data is fine, but creating a table i'm having problems with. My code extracts the data outputs the string to another file which works fineThe text file looks like this

it compares two files using md5... if they are same , a corresponding character is output to a text file .. but the problem is it gets appended by default.. is there any way to output in a normal way because the text is a message and it should be of proper format
here is my script
Code:
#!/bin/bash

I have 3 old video capture cards which I would like to use for CCTV. Each card supports 1 camera. So I would like to have 3 cameras setup in the end and monitor them with zoneminder. When each card is plugged in on it's own, it works fine. Video comes through clearly with xawtv and zoneminder. However as soon as I plug in a 2nd card (with or without a camera connected) the output in xawtv and zoneminder goes haywire. It looks like the 2nd card takes over the first card, resulting in majority of the picture coming from the 2nd card, and some (if any) from the 1st card. When viewing either of the two cards /dev/video0 or /dev/video1 in xawtv the output is identical. I've tried this on a fresh 10.04 Ubuntu install, and on an older MythTV debian computer, the same results. Here are lspci -vv outputs with 2 combinations of cards (same fuzzy output):
[URL]
My thoughts are because the capture cards are cheap (similar to winmodems), the problem may be in the software kernel modules not allowing room for other similar capture cards to run at the same time. Can anyone suggest me in the right direction? Do I need to setup some sort of memory allocation for each card manually? Something in the BIOS? An extra option when the card modules are loaded?
I am manually backing up my server now with mysqldump and that works but I was wondering about mechanizing the process.
Nirvana would be to dump to a file named with the date

Is it possible to have a text file somewhere that contains a list of all users that are allowed access to a given folder? This would be fantastic for file servers on a network.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI am currently using a script to backup my Ubuntu 10.04.1 system. The mySQL databases are backed up separately from the the system / data.
My problem is with the mySQL incremental / binary log backups.
The problem is that the binary log file(s) are always named xxxx-bin.1.
Up to about a month ago the binary logs were named xxxx-bin.000001, xxxx-bin.000002, etc.
I did make some changes at about the time that this change in file naming ocurred, but I can not identify what, if any, setting I may have changed that has caused all of the binary log files to always have the same name.
My back up script uses both mysqldump and mysqladmin flush-logs to create the binary logs.
All of the setting for mysqldump and mysqladmin are contained in the my.cnf file.
The my.cnf file contents that are relavent are as follows:
Code:
The statements in the backup script that do the backup are:
mysqladmin flush-logs
or
mysqldump | gzip > $DB_BACKUP_DIR/$ARCHIVE_FILE #Note: delete-master-logs in my.cnf
I am not sure why this does not work..
tshark |grep 'string'
Gives me what I want but
tshark |grep 'string' >/tmp/outputfile
Gives me an empty file.

I have installed postfix with amavisd, spamassassin, and clamav on ubuntu 10.04 server, all works as well.

I have a scheduled backup to run on our server at work and since the 7/12/09 it has be making 592k files instead of 10Mb files, In mysql-admin (the GUI tool) I have a stored connection for the user 'backup', the user has select and lock rights on the databases being backed up. I have a backup profile called 'backup_regular' and in the third tab along its scheduled to backup at 2 in the morning every week day. If I look at one of the small backup files generated I see the following:
Code:
-- MySQL Administrator dump 1.4

-- Server version`

It seems that MySQL can open and write to the file fine, it just can't dump
Does anyone know of any decent enterprise level backup solutions for Linux? I need to backup a few servers and a bunch of desktops onto one backup server. Using rsync/tar.gz won't cut it. I need like bi-monthly full HDD backups, and things such as that, with a nice GUI interface to add/remove systems from the backup list. I need basically something similar to CommVault or Veritas. Veritas I've used before but it has its issues, such as leaving 30GB cache files. CommVault, I have no idea how much it is, and if it supports backing up to a hard drive rather than tape.

View 4 Replies View RelatedI was wondering if it is possible to append some text to the output of ls. Like say, if i wanted to create symbolic links for all the files under a folder in my hard disk to a folder on my desktop, I could say (Pretty sure this won't work, but I am looking forward to something like this) echo ln -s | ls . This should append ln -s to all the files of ls.
