automatic backup of catalyst 6500

[karblane1]

Hey!

i have a EEM script that backups the running conf when entering command "write memory" to ftp server.

How can i modify it, that it would'nt copy the file over and over. Instead it would make the conf file with diffrent name or date.

Any ideas?

You can have the EEM script append the current data and time to file name whenever a "write memory" is given so that every time a file with a different name will be created. Another workaround would be to manually rename or move the file after entering command "write memory".

[karblane1]

Yep, at the moment cron changes the filename after it has been copied to backup server

hi,

we use a simple shel script, like this :

#!/bin/bash

umask 022

export DIR=/netmgmt

export ID=$$

export ROUTER=${1}

export DATEDIR=`/bin/date -I`

export COMMUNITY=${2}

export SNMPSET="/usr/bin/snmpset -m CISCO-CONFIG-COPY-MIB -v 2c -t 500"

export SNMPGET="/usr/bin/snmpget -m CISCO-CONFIG-COPY-MIB -v 2c -Ovque"

export SNMPWALK="/usr/bin/snmpwalk -m CISCO-CONFIG-COPY-MIB -v 2c"

export TFTPDIR=/tftpboot

#Write memory

echo "`date` $ROUTER:write memory" >> $DIR/log_backup/log-${DATEDIR}

while [ $OUT == 2 ]

do

OUT=`${SNMPGET} -c ${COMMUNITY} ${ROUTER} ccCopyState.${ID}`

done

${SNMPWALK} -c ${COMMUNITY} ${ROUTER} ccCopyState >> $DIR/log_backup/log-${DATEDIR}

if [ $OUT != 3 ]

then

echo -n "`date` ERROR: " >> $DIR/log_backup/log-${DATEDIR}

while [ $OUT == 2 ]

do

sleep 1

${SNMPWALK} -c ${COMMUNITY} ${ROUTER} ccCopyState >> $DIR/log_backup/log-${DATEDIR}

then

/bin/chmod 640 ${TFTPDIR}/${ROUTER}

/bin/cp -p ${TFTPDIR}/${ROUTER} $DIR/conf_backup/${DATEDIR}/${ROUTER}

/bin/rm ${TFTPDIR}/${ROUTER}

and every night at 00:01 we run these 2 scripts:

#!/bin/bash

DIR=/netmgmt

umask 022

export DATEDIR=`date -I`

mkdir $DIR/conf_backup/${DATEDIR}

#!/bin/sh

#

# Only keep config 120 days back

#

DIR=/netmgmt

find $DIR/conf_backup -ctime +120 -exec rm -rf {} \;
