# zfs-backup.sh
#
# Simple backup script utilizing rsync and ZFS snapshots.
#
# rsync must be installed both on the server and the client.
# ssh must be installed on the client.
# bash must be installed on the server.
# The server must use zfs and provide a dataset for each client.

# Pass the following environment variables to the script:
#
# * BACKUP_DATASET  : ZFS dataset to use
# * BACKUP_SSH_PATH : Original data SSH path (user@host:path)
# * BACKUP_SSH_PORT : SSH source port (22)

DAY_OF_WEEKLY_BACKUP=1      # monday
DAY_OF_MONTHLY_BACKUP="01"  # first day in month
