Raspberry Pi - Domoticz, Z-Wave Backup Script

[ben53252642]

This script is designed to create a backup to a network share that can be restored to completely new identical hardware including the Z-Wave network (must be using the Razberry GPIO Gen 5 model and have Z-Way software installed).

It does:

1) Backs up Z-Wave network via Z-Way
2) Backs up the Domoticz database
3) Creates a gz compressed DD image of the Raspberry Pi's entire Micro SD card
4) Delete backups older than 180 days (configured at the bottom of the script)

Note that there is a chance for a DD backup to contain some corrupt files if they change during the moment they are backed up. I use the BTRFS filesystem on my Pi which allows me to run an integrity check after a restore to make sure there are no issues.

This script requires moderate - advanced Linux knowledge, general support will not be provided, use at your own risk.

You will need to understand and modify sections of the script to suite your environment.

echo "Deleting backups older than 180 days"
find /network/Backup/"$hostname"* -mtime +180 -exec rm {} \;
exit

I run the script via another script in the same directory called start.sh:

Code: Select all

#!/bin/bash
if screen -list | grep -q "backup"; then
screen -x backup
else
screen -S backup -d -m /scripts/backup/backup.sh
fi

Running start.sh will start a backup running in the background, running it a second time while a backup is still in progress then displays the screen session showing output similar to that in the example screenshots above.

Known issues:
* Cannot run the Echo Java bridge (if you are using it) while the Z-Way backup is in progress due to port conflict, be sure to stop Echo Bridge before running the script (or you can simply stop the service as part of the script which is what I do).
* Domoticz is stopped for about 30 seconds while the Z-Wave network backup is done via Z-Way, it is able to be running while the longer DD backup is in progress.

My use case:
I keep a spare Raspberry Pi with a second identical Z-Wave controller onboard. In the event that my primary controller fails, I can do a total restore to the backup hardware.
