Operating Systems Linux Make directory used as mount point read-only Post 302921467 by gull04 on Friday 17th of October 2014 08:13:57 AM

Hi,

I used to use this type of check when I used external devices.

Code:
PARCHK=`df -k | grep mybackup | wc -l`

if [ ${PARCHK} -ne 1 ]
        then
        echo "The portable hard drive partitions are not mounted, please correct."
        exit 1
        else
        echo "There are ${PARCHK} partitions mounted, backup starting."
fi

This should work for you if you change the messages to suit.

Regards

Dave
