✨ NAME ✨

okay so bestie, meet storeBackupReplicationWizard.pl β€” the little script from the STOREBA...NWIZARD(1) page that literally creates configuration files for replication. she's a wizard, she's helpful, she's here to hold your hand πŸ’–


πŸͺ„ SYNOPSIS πŸͺ„

storeBackupReplicationWizard.pl [-m masterBackupDir]
      [-c backupCopyDir] [-d deltaCacheDir] [-S series] [-T tmpdir]

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

so like, if you don't specify one of the directories, she's gonna ask you interactively β€” no cap, she'll just start chatting with you. it's giving full customer service energy 🫢

this "wizard" is for simple configurations only, okay? like, she's not doing your whole elaborate setup. what she does do is let you create configuration files for one replication of multiple series to, like, one external disk. that's the vibe. one replication, multiple series, one external disk. periodt πŸ’…

and oh β€” if the directories you specified don't exist? she's gonna ask whether you want to create them. polite queen. 😌


πŸ‘‘ OPTIONS πŸ‘‘

  • --masterBackupDir, -m β€” the top level directory of the master backup. the main character directory, if you will 🌟
  • --backupCopyDir, -c β€” the top level directory of the backup copy (like, eg. your external disk πŸ¦‹). this is where the copies live.
  • --deltaCacheDir, -d β€” the top level directory of the delta cache. the delta cache is so important, obsessed with her fr fr πŸ’œ
  • --series, -S β€” the series to be replicated πŸŽ€ use this parameter multiple times for multiple series β€” stack her up, bestie, she's built for it.
  • --tmpdir, -T β€” the directory for temporary files. default is </tmp> ✨
