Hi, absolutely none :)

Were you expecting something special?

mac-linux-free commented 1 year ago

Oh...I want to put a config-backup to crontab. So I think I need an argument like proxmox_toolbox.sh -b

Hello again, sorry to open this up. Could you add an argument to define the backup-versions like proxmox_toolbox -b -v 10 ? I want to cron this and rsync away from host.

Thank you.

Hey!

What do you mean by "backup version" and why is it related to cron and rsync?

The backup already has a timestamp in the name and if you're worried about taking away the latest version i feel it can be very easilly achived with your rsync script.

If I run it daily on 5 cluster nodes, the directory would grow, and I need only the last 10 versions per node.

Just script a purge in that folder along the execution of the backup :)
