Re: [Astlinux-users] USB disk automount in Astlinux

I backup my PBX in 2 places.

1. I have a permanent USB disk mounted as /mnt/kd/USB/ and a script in the crontab takes care of the backup:

0 4 * * * tar czf /mnt/kd/USB/backup.`date "+%Y-%m-%d"`.tar.gz $(ls -1 /mnt/kd/ | sed -e "s/^cdr-.*//" -e "s/^USB$//" -e "s/^monitor$//" -e "s/^voicemail$//") -C /mnt/kd


2. My NAS running UnRaid also pulls a backup from the USB drive remotely via scp. You need to do the ssh key setup and so it does not prompt you for password. I do pull backups remotely from all my IOT and other devices.

#!/bin/bash
scp -r exile@192.168.0.15:/mnt/kd/USB/*gz  /mnt/user/IOT-BKP/AST-PBX/
