Provides an extension to save off important system recovery
information.
This is a simple Cedar Backup extension used to save off important
system recovery information. It saves off three types of
information:
The saved-off information is placed into the collect directory and is
compressed using bzip2
to save space.
This extension relies on the options and collect configurations in the
standard Cedar Backup configuration file, but requires no new
configuration of its own. No public functions other than the action are
exposed since all of this is pretty simple. Note:
If the dpkg
or fdisk
commands cannot
be found in their normal locations or executed by the current user,
those steps will be skipped and a note will be logged at the INFO
level.
