# Backup Scripts
Various backup scripts for backing up your Shared Hosting account on Kaizen Gardens
Shared Hosting service. Can also be used for backing up data on Joyent
SmartMachines and TextDrive's legacy Shared Hosting service.
## Getting Started
Currenty expects to be run under SmartOS zones (useful if you're on a Kaizen Gardens
Shared Hosting account on SmartOS or a Joyent SmartMachine).
### SSH Keys
Best to use seperate private/public key-pairs to authenticate to different services.
In ~/.ssh/config use something like:
```
Host example.strongspace.com
IdentityFile ~/.ssh/id_rsa-strongspace
```
### MySQL
Expects a ~/.my.cnf file to be configured:
```
[client]
user = username
password = password
```
```
MYSQL_DAYS_TO_KEEP=14
```
Key
Type
Description
Example
MYSQL_DAYS_TO_KEEP
string
Number of days worth of backups to store (it removes files older than X days based on the file modification time)
14
### PostgreSQL
Expects a ~/.pgpass file to be configured.
```
PGSQL_DAYS_TO_KEEP=14
```
Key
Type
Description
Example
PGSQL_DAYS_TO_KEEP
string
Number of days worth of backups to store (it removes files older than X days based on the file modification time)
14
### Offsite Backups
Presently supports backing up to a remote SFTP location.
```
#
# Backup Host
#
BACKUP_OFFSITE_ENABLED=yes
BACKUP_HOST=sftp.example.com
BACKUP_USER=username
BACKUP_REMOTE_DIR=/path/to/backups/
RSYNC_OPTS=--delete-after
```
Key
Type
Description
Example
BACKUP_OFFSITE_ENABLED
string
Is offsite backup syncing enabled
yes
BACKUP_HOST
string
Hostname or IP Address of the server where files are backed up to
sftp.siberia.co.za
BACKUP_USER
string
Username on the server specified in BACKUP_HOST
jacques
BACKUP_REMOTE_DIR
string
The remote diretory where files are uploaded to
/users/home/jacques/remote-backups/joey/
RSYNC_OPTS
string
Specifies options to rsync. To do a "dry run" use --dry-run.
--delete-after
### Generate a SSH public/private key-pair
Generate a public/private key-pair without a passphrase so that backups can be
uploaded offsite without prompting to enter a password or a pass phrase to unlock
the ssh private key.
```
ssh-keygen -t rsa -b 4096 -N ''
```
You may want to store this to generated key-pair to ~/.ssh/id_rsa-strongspace for a
public/private key-pair you just use with StrongSpace.
### Configuration files
Copy config.example to config so that the configuration can be sourced by the
various scripts.
