#69 Disable monthly backups (DOMONTHLY=00)
It could be nice to have a DOMONTHLY=xx configuration to decide which day in the month the monhly backup should be done. More important if the value DOMONTHLY=00 is set, then the monthly backup is bypassed (like DOWEEKLY=0).
I need this option to avoid that for a particular monday which is the first of the month, 4 backups are made (daily, weekly, monthly, latest), but as we have not enough disk space to store all 4 backups at the same day (our mysql backup is 10 GB and our disk is only 40 GB...). If we could simply disable the monthly backup as we can with the weekly backup, we could handle the situtation.
I patched the /usr/sbin/automysqlbackup for the moment to disable the monthly backup, is it possible to submit some patches ?
BTW, thanks for your work, this script is very useful ;^)
The feature request could be closed, I downloaded the original .tar of the script and the feature is already implemented...
As I use debian .deb package, the feature is not yet available there, so it's a debian feature request ;^)
