  • User cases (description of sequences of events that, taken together, lead to a system doing something useful)
    • Who is going to use it?
    • How are they going to use it?

I use this script to backup my QEMU/KVM/libVirt virtual machines. The script requires KVM 2.1+ since it uses the live blockcommit mode. This means the data in the snapshot disk is rolled back into the original instead of the other way around. Script does NOT handle spaces in paths.
#!/bin/bash
#
BACKUPDEST="$1"
DOMAIN="$2"
MAXBACKUPS="$3"
if [ -z "$BACKUPDEST" -o -z "$DOMAIN" ]; then
echo "Usage: ./vm-backup <backup-folder> <domain> [max-backups]"
exit 1

How to clone a git repo to an existing folder (not empty)
  1. First get to the existing directory
    $ cd my/folder/

  2. Now start a new git repository
    $ git init

  3. Identify if the current elements on the directory are needed or not and add them to the .gitignore file. When ready...
    $ vim .gitignore

  4. When ready create the first commit on the server

I have to create user authentication using python-ldap. After googling around and trying out stuffs, this is the final code for you to use. Please remember to adjust the user_dn, and base_dn accordingly to the format used in your LDAP server.
# to be able to import ldap run pip install python-ldap
import ldap
if __name__ == "__main__":
ldap_server="x.x.x.x"
username = "someuser"
password= "somepassword"
# the following is the user_dn format provided by the ldap server
user_dn = "uid="+username+",ou=someou,dc=somedc,dc=local"
