Server Backup Script
Tue Feb 03, 2009 · 232 words

Here's a server backup script that someone else might find userful as well. By “server backup” I mean configuration (/etc and serveradmin) and Open Directory as well as calendar and wiki data.

The OD backup is the entire archive which also includes user passwords. Very handy in case you have to re-od-master a server.

#!/usr/bin/env bash
# serverbackup.sh

ODPASS=somepass			# Password used to encrypt the OD archive
CALDATA=/Library/CalendarServer/Documents
WEBDATA=/Library/Collaboration
BACKUP_DST=/Volumes/BackupRAID/backup/server
SERVICES='mail afp calendar dirserv swupdate web dns radius dhcp'

logger -p local0.notice "Starting server backup"

umask 077

if [[ ! -d ${BACKUP_DST}/serveradmin ]]
then
  mkdir -p ${BACKUP_DST}/serveradmin
  mkdir -p ${BACKUP_DST}/wiki
  mkdir -p ${BACKUP_DST}/ical
fi

# Clean OD backups older than 2 weeks
find ${BACKUP_DST} -name odbackup-* -mtime +14 -delete

# Backup OD
echo -n "Creating Open Directory Archive..."

CMD_FILE=/tmp/sacommands.txt
LOCATION=${BACKUP_DST}/odbackup-$(date "+%Y%m%d")
echo "dirserv:backupArchiveParams:archivePassword = ${ODPASS}" > $CMD_FILE
echo "dirserv:backupArchiveParams:archivePath = ${LOCATION}" >> $CMD_FILE
echo "dirserv:command = backupArchive" >> $CMD_FILE
serveradmin command < $CMD_FILE

srm $CMD_FILE
echo "   OK"

echo -n "Backing up active Server Admin settings"

rm ${BACKUP_DST}/serveradmin/*.sabackup

for s in $SERVICES
do
  serveradmin settings $s > ${BACKUP_DST}/serveradmin/${s}.sabackup
done

echo "   OK"

echo -n "Backing up config files"
/usr/bin/rsync -aqu --delete /etc/ ${BACKUP_DST}/etc/
echo "   OK"

echo -n "Backing up wiki pages"
/usr/bin/rsync -aquE --delete ${WEBDATA} ${BACKUP_DST}/wiki/
echo "   OK"

echo -n "Backing up iCal data"
/usr/bin/rsync -aquE --delete ${CALDATA} ${BACKUP_DST}/ical/
echo "   OK"

logger -p local0.notice "Server backup finished"

exit 0
