🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

so here's the tea, bestie: this utility can be used to abort the backup run for a given backup-set. one job, done perfectly, no notes. 💅

ngl if you want the whole lore on how to configure and use ZRM for MySQL, go read the ZRM for MySQL documentation at http://mysql-backup.zmanda.com/. that's where all the procedures live. iykyk. ✨

💖 OPTIONS 💖

• --backup-set name — say which Backup Set you're talking about. the default value is BackupSet1. (yes, default bestie. she's always there.) 🎀
• --options-file conf_file — set the filename and the full path for the file that holds the ZRM for MySQL command options. the format for this file is the same as the one for mysql-zrm.conf(5). same vibe, same format. 📄
• --tmpdir temp_directory — the full path of the directory for storing temporary files and directories on the backup host. default? the system-specified temporary directory on the backup host, e.g. /tmp. 🗂️
• --quiet|--no-quiet — choose quiet to suppress display of log messages on stdout. choose no-quiet to display the log messages to standard output (stdout). the default is --no-quiet. pick your fighter. 🔇🔊
• --verbose — give me more detailed output in the log. verbose output is turned off by default, so it's lowkey shy until you ask. 🗣️
• --help — displays the help message and exits. 🆘 this one is a command line only parameter and cannot be specified in the configuration file. no exceptions, no sneaking it into a conf file, she said what she said.

---

🍓 FILES 🍓

• /var/lib/mysql-zrm — the directory under which all backup data is stored. all of it. every last crumb. 🧺
• /etc/mysql-zrm/backup set name/mysql-zrm.conf — the configuration file read by the mysql-zrm utility. yes, the path literally has backup set name in it — that's where your set's name goes. 💜

---

🌈 RETURN VALUES 🌈

• on success, zero is returned. slay. ✅
• on error, a non-zero value is returned. 💀
