Backup using External Monitor

Hi,

We are trying to automate the backup using external monitor.Tried using the below script.Looks like monitor is marking the pool as UP but the content(UCS)is not getting copied over to the destination. Please suggest.

!/bin/bash IP=

echo ${1} | sed 's/::ffff://'
PORT=${2} PIDFILE="/var/run/
basename ${0}
.${IP}_${PORT}.pid" if [ -f $PIDFILE ] then kill -9 
cat $PIDFILE
> /dev/null 2>&1 fi echo "$$" > $PIDFILE tmsh save sys ucs today && scp /var/local/ucs/today.ucs user@${IP}:/var/tmp/backups/ && ssh user@${IP} ls /var/tmp/backups |grep "today" 2>&1 > /dev/null if [ $? -eq 0 ] then echo "UP" fi rm -f $PIDFILE exit

    You could always use Crontab to schedule your backup and send it over. There is some good info in THIS post from a little while back.

     

    Hope that helps! If it does please upvote and select this answer, it’d be greatly appreciated!
