==== vertebackup: The backbone of your backup scheme! ==== Snazzy rotating system-level backups using rsync and hard links. Lame name, cool script. All the cool names were taken. === Usage === vertebackup takes one argument, the UUID of the partition where your backups will live. You can find the UUID of your partition with the `blkid` tool (make sure the disk is plugged in!). Make sure the disk is plugged in and partition mounted, then initial a backup like so: sudo ./vertebackup.sh 070796a9-0e27-43e3-8fab-7eaa940e2dec === Notes === The script will try to reduce impact of IO on user responsiveness by running the script with `ionice`. If your system doesn't have this tool installed the script will fail. Just do yourself a favor and install it, in Ubuntu it is in the package `util-linux`.
