sadm_backupdb.sh
NAME
sadm_backupdb.sh - Backup one or all MySQL/MariaDB Databases present on the system
SYNOPSIS
sadm_backupdb.sh [-b backup_dir] [-d 0-9] [-h] [-n dbname] [-u] [-v]
DESCRIPTION
The function of this script is to take a backup of our SADMIN database, but by default it take a backup of all databases present on the SADMIN server into the “$SADMIN/dat/dbb” directory. If you want to backup only one database, you can use the ‘-n’ command line options and specify the name of the database to backup. This backup is run automatically by the “sadm_server-sunrise.sh” script early every morning via SADMIN server crontab (/etc/cron.d/sadm_server).
The file name follow this pattern “databaseName_YYYY_MM_DD_HH_MM_SS.sql.gz”. For example, “sadmin_2018_07_13_05_46_25_Friday.sql.gz” is the backup file for the ‘sadmin’ database taken at 05:46:25AM on July the 13th 2018. The default backup directory structure where the backup is created is “${SADMIN}/dat/dbb”, but you can specify the backup directory of your choice with the ‘-b’ command line option. In the backup directory, backup are group by type: ‘daily’,’weekly’, ‘monthly’,’yearly’ and the ‘latest’ directory. In each of these directories, there is a sub-directory for each of the database that’s backup. If you’re looking for the latest Database backup, go in the ‘latest’ sub-directory, the more recent backup will always be there. After a couple of months, the backup directory structure should look similar to the one below.
After a couple of months, the backup directory structure should look similar to this:
$ cd $SADMIN/dat/dbb
/sadmin/dat/dbb $ find . | grep sadmin
./daily/sadmin
./daily/sadmin/sadmin_2021_05_25_13_05_06_Tuesday.sql.gz

/sadmin/dat/dbb $
We have 4 ‘daily’ backups (default). The ‘latest’ directory always contain link to the most recent backup. The ‘monthly’ is taken on the first of each month (Default). We also decided to keep 4 copies of the monthly backup. The weekly backup is done every Friday (Default) and the ‘yearly’ backup, will be taken on the 31th of December of each year and the default is to keep 2 copies of it.

If you wish to change the value of any of the variables below, it is recommended to copy the script to the user directory (${SADMIN}/usr/bin), so it’s not replaced by a future version of this script. In future version, we will allow these variables to be specify on the command line or within the SADMIN configuration file.
