This is Simple Backup

It's a simple set of scripts that leverage duplicity to do file backups to S3. It might even work with other destinations, but that's not tested.

To get started, copy the etc/settings.template to etc/settings and edit to your requirements. Edit etc/sets, to contain the locations to backup, one per line. Backups are recursive.

Commands

Command Action
backup_check Run collection-status again each backup set
backup_clean Removed old backups from S3
backup_list list-current-files for each set
backup_restore restore the give path to $path.RESTORED
backup_sets list the backup sets
backup_totalsize reports the total size of backup data in S3
backup_verify verify the backup sets against local data

S3 set up

Create a bucket, $BUCKET

Create a new IAM user, $BACKUPUSER, with the following policy. Generate access keys
