991	2016-09-27	ON_QA	Log file strategy

2016-09-11 09:46:43:  

Develop a strategy to be sure that log files don't get excessive

2016-09-20 15:26:20:  

Looks like we can simply delete all the gzipped log files after
the backup has run.  Probably should decide about backing up the
system logs as well as the openDV logs,

2016-09-25 11:40:11:  

Backup logs to cimbaoth

#!/bin/sh -x
FILENAME=`date +'%Y%m%d-opendv.tar.gz'`
FILENAME2=`date +'%Y%m%d-log.tar.gz'`
NODE="71.10.153.139"
#
*****************************************************************
# REMOVE THIS LINE WHEN ON ANOTHER NETWORK
#
*****************************************************************
NODE="cimbaoth"
TARGET="/backup03/backup/kc8arj/"
tar -czf ${FILENAME} /etc/opendv/*
tar -czf ${FILENAME2} /var/log/opendv/*
scp ${FILENAME} backup@${NODE}:${TARGET}
scp ${FILENAME2} backup@${NODE}:${TARGET}
rm -f ${FILENAME} ${FILENAME2}

Clear out old logs on Mondays

#!/bin/sh

rm /var/log/opendv/*log.?.gz

And finally the crontab:

MAILTO=root@localhost.localdomain
# Edit this file to introduce tasks to be run by cron.
# 
# Each task to run has to be defined through a single line
# indicating with different fields when the task will be run
# and what command to run for the task
# 
# To define the time you can provide concrete values for
# minute (m), hour (h), day of month (dom), month (mon),
# and day of week (dow) or use '*' in these fields (for 'any').# 
# Notice that tasks will be started based on the cron's system
# daemon's notion of time and timezones.
# 
# Output of the crontab jobs (including errors) is sent through
# email to the user the crontab file belongs to (unless
redirected).
# 
# For example, you can run a backup of all your user accounts
# at 5 a.m every week with:
# 0 5 * * 1 tar -zcf /var/backups/home.tgz /home/
# 
# For more information see the manual pages of crontab(5) and
cron(8)
# 
# m h  dom mon dow   command
#
# Backup logs each night 3 minutes before midnight zulu
#
57 23 * * *               /root/backitup
#
# Clear out gzipped logs each Monday right after backup
#
59 23 * * 1   /root/cleanLogs

992	2016-10-18		Make backup SD

2016-09-11 09:49:16:  

Need to create a backup SD card immediately before taking
repeater to site

2016-09-12 10:32:15:  

Create a backup of the SD card.  Moved date to the day before
install since this wants to be the LAST thing we do.

996	2016-11-30		Test 100 watt amp

2016-09-12 10:49:37:  

Repeater will initially be set for 20 watts. It is unknown at
this time whether the addition of an external amplifier will
result in excess desense. After the repeater is at the site, an
amp will be tested for coverage.
