Can you check with mount command then if exit code is 0 do the rsync, else don't rsync ?
Touching a file will work on both directory and mountpoint so that check is not good.
Something like
OK i understand..but this is before starting the backup..what if during the backup itself (assume the backup will take 3 hours) the external drive gets connected for some reason ?
A disk was sliced into 6 slices with m01 being the mount point for one of the slices. This mount point was deleted with rmdir (ie. rmdir m01).
What is the easiest way to recover this mount point? (1 Reply)

is there any command to know the list of mount points in a server.i need only the mount point lists.i tried using df but it was not helpful.i am using Solaris (1 Reply)
Dear Gurus,
Could it be possible to have the output of df -k sorted? The df -k output messed up after recent power trip.
Also, is there any folders that I should look into to reduce the root size (other than /var/adm and /var/crash) after server crash?
Many thanks in advance.

svn-fast-backup
svn-fast-backup(1) General Commands Manual svn-fast-backup(1)NAME
svn-fast-backup - very fast backup for Subversion fsfs repositories.
SYNOPSIS
svn-fast-backup [-q] [-k{N|all}] [-f] [-t] [-s] repos_path backup_dir
DESCRIPTION
svn-fast-backup uses rsync snapshots for very fast backup of a Subversion fsfs repository at repos_path to backup_dir/repos-rev, the latest
revision number in the repository. Multiple fsfs backups share data via hardlinks, so old backups are almost free, since a newer revision
of a repository is almost a complete superset of an older revision.
This is good for replacing incremental log-dump+restore-style backups because it is just as space-conserving and even faster; there is no
inter-backup state (old backups are essentially caches); each backup directory is self-contained. It has the same command-line interface
as svn-hot-backup(1) (if you use --force), but only works for fsfs repositories.
svn-fast-backup keeps 64 backups by default and deletes backups older than these; this can be adjusted with the -k option.
OPTIONS -h, --help
Shows some brief help text.
-q, --quiet
Quieter-than-usual operation.
-k, --keep=N
Keep a specified number of backups; the default is to keep 64.
-k, --keep=all
Do not delete any old backups at all.
-f, --force
Make a new backup even if one with the current revision exists.
-t, --trace
Show actions.
-s, --simulate
Don't perform actions.
