duplicity-backup-status

Backupninja generates duplicity configfiles, this nagios plugin can check their freshness. Currently only the config files generated by backupninja can be parsed and we depend on that.

Prerequisites

Make sure you have python-argparse installed (yes an extra dependency, getopt doubles the amount of code, so I gave up on that). The Python script will look for the duplicity_freshness.sh shell script in /usr/local/lib/nagios/plugins/ or /usr/lib/nagios/plugins/ make sure you copy it there and make executable.

Getting started

Run the python script from your nagios. Don't forget to specify some extras like when warnings or criticalities should be emerged.

  • -w WARNINC Number of hours allowed for incremential backup warning level default 28
  • -W WARNFULL Number of days allowed for full backup warning level default 31
  • -c CRITINC Number of hours allowed for incremential backup critical level default 52
  • -C CRITFULL Number of days allowed for full backup critical level default 33

TODO:

  • make it cuter, tidy up
  • make it more robust
  • support other config backends as backupninja - this can be done by writing more scripts like backupninja_duplicity_freshness.sh and parsing an extra parameter
