1. locate the backup using the below command :
mysql-zrm-reporter --show restore-info --where backup-set=myhostserver1.com
where ‘myhostserver1.com’ is my host configured for backup
2. Extract the backup to the location /backup/sql/myhostserver1.com/20140604050029/ using the command below :
mysql-zrm-extract-backup --source-directory /backup/sql/myhostserver1.com/20140604050029/ --tmpdir /temporary_location/
Enjoy 🙂

Follow the below steps to rename a host in BackupPC.
1. Stop BackupPC service :
service backuppc stop
2. Login to the configuration folder
cd /etc/BackupPC
2. Change the host file to the corresponding one :
vi hosts
*change old_host to new_host*
3. Rename the pl file in pc folder :
cd pc
mv old_host.pl new_host.pl
4. Make the changes in the backup location (I assume your backup is storing in the location /backup):
cd /backup/filesystem/pc/
mv old_host new_host
5.Start Backuppc service:
service backuppc start
6. Login to the backuppc console and make sure that the changes are replicated there.
Enjoy 🙂
Create a script as below and make it executable:
#!/bin/bash
Now_hourly=$(date +%d-%b-%H_%M)
Now_daily=$(date +%d-%b-daily)
if [ "$1" == "hourly" ]; then
/usr/bin/mysqldump --all-databases | gzip -c | cat > /Backup_location/mysql_dump_all$Now_hourly.sql.gz
elif [ "$1" == "daily" ]; then
/usr/bin/mysqldump --all-databases | gzip -c | cat > /Backup_location/mysql_dump_all$Now_daily.sql.gz
else
echo "Error. Enter hourly or daily";
fi
Now add the script in crontab for the hours it should run.
15,30 1,3 * * * script_name hourly
10,20 2,4 * * *Â script_name daily
Hourly backup will run at 01:15,01:30,03:15 and 03:30
Daily backup will run at 02:10,02:20,04:10 and 04:20 (since name would be same, it will replace each daily backup before)
Edit the configuration in BackupPC is as below :
Edit config –> Backup Settings –> User commands -> DumpPostUserCmd as
/theg/email.sh $xferOK $host $type $client $hostIP $share $XferMethod $sshPath $cmdType
where /theg/email.sh is the custom script.
Below are the contents of the email.sh script :
#!/bin/bash
# script to send simple email
# Email To ?
EMAIL=”your_email_address”
# Email text/message
EMAILMESSAGE=”/tmp/emailmessage.txt”
# Grab the status variables
xferOK=$1
host=$2
type=$3
client=$4
hostIP=$5
share=$6
XferMethod=$7
sshPath=$8
cmdType=$9
# Check if backup succeeded or not.
if [[ $xferOK == 1 ]]; then
       STATUS=”SUCCESS”
else
       STATUS=”FAILED”
fi
# email subject
SUBJECT=”[BackupPC] $STATUS for host: $client”
# Email text/message
echo “Filesystem backup for $host $STATUS” > $EMAILMESSAGE
echo “” >>$EMAILMESSAGE
echo “Type: $type” >>$EMAILMESSAGE
echo “Client: $client” >>$EMAILMESSAGE
echo “Host: $host” >>$EMAILMESSAGE
echo “Host IP: $hostIP” >>$EMAILMESSAGE
echo “Share: $share” >>$EMAILMESSAGE
echo “XferMethod: $XferMethod” >>$EMAILMESSAGE
echo “sshPath: $sshPath” >>$EMAILMESSAGE
echo “cmdType: $cmdType” >>$EMAILMESSAGE
# send an email using /bin/mail
/bin/mail -s “$SUBJECT” “$EMAIL” < $EMAILMESSAGE
