Hi guys iv been working on a bit of script to do a backup and restore
Im going to uni next year and trying to prepare myself
Basically all im wanting is a simple script that shows a menu and does what ever the user inputs
here is my code
Code:
#!/bin/sh
# Backup des
backup= "/root/Russell/"
#Restore Des
restore= "/root/backups/"
while :
do
echo " [1] Backup "
echo " [2] Restore "
echo " [3] Exit "
echo
echo -n " enter number "
read number
case " $number" in
1) echo "backup" ; cp -av $backup $restore ;;
2) echo "restore" ; cp -av $restore $backup ;;
3) clear ; exit ;;
esac
done
when i run the script it says
root/russell is a directory
root/backups is a directory
1) backup
2) restore
3) exit
enter number
.................................................................................................... ...........
when i enter a number it just returns the menu again but does nothing. even the exit doesnt work
any help here would help
as i can see this should work.
regards
