NAME

rsbackup-mount - mount encrypted or unencrypted disks used by rsbackup

SYNOPSIS

rsbackup-mount [ OPTIONS ] [ -- ] [ DEVICES ]

DESCRIPTION

rsbackup-mount mounts and unmounts encrypted or unencrypted partitions used as backup stores by rsbackup (1).

OPTIONS

--unmount , -u

Unmount devices. (The default is to mount devices.)

--check , -c

Check for available devices that aren’t open.

--dry-run , -n

Do nothing, instead print the commands that would be executed.

--key-file PATH , -k PATH

Pass the argument --key-file PATH to cryptsetup .

--help , -h

Display usage message.

--version , -V

Display version string.

CONFIGURATION

Configuration is read from /etc/rsbackup/devices . This is a shell script fragment. It should set devices to a (space-separated) list of device names and for each device name D , define D _uuid to its UUID. To specify that a device is unencrypted (i.e. that it just requires mounting or unmounting), define D _plain as a non-empty string for that device. (Have a look in /dev/disk/by-uuid to find device UUIDs).

Example

# List names of devices here
devices="backup3 backup4"

# For each device, define DEVICE_uuid
# e.g. devicename_uuid=8f4171f0-007d-4083-a40c-407e5f9c24dd
backup3_uuid=8f4171f0-007d-4083-a40c-407e5f9c24dd
backup4_uuid=80a1ca0d-d07a-4195-9da1-8cbb9fbc11b9

# For any device that isn’t encrypted, define DEVICE_plain
# e.g. devicename_plain=1
backup3_plain=1
