3 # Configuration file for BackupPC.
4 #
5 # DESCRIPTION
6 #
7 # This is the main configuration file for BackupPC.
8 #
9 # This file must be valid perl source, so make sure the punctuation,
10 # quotes, and other syntax are valid.
11 #
12 # This file is read by BackupPC at startup, when a HUP (-1) signal
13 # is sent to BackupPC and also at each wakeup time whenever the
14 # modification time of this file changes.
15 #
16 # The configuration parameters are divided into four general groups.
17 # The first group (general server configuration) provides general
18 # configuration for BackupPC. The next two groups describe what
19 # to backup, when to do it, and how long to keep it. The fourth
20 # group are settings for the CGI http interface.
21 #
22 # Configuration settings can also be specified on a per-PC basis.
23 # Simply put the relevant settings in a config.pl file in the
24 # PC's backup directory (ie: in __TOPDIR__/pc/hostName).
25 # All configuration settings in the second, third and fourth
26 # groups can be overridden by the per-PC config.pl file.

42 # Host name on which the BackupPC server is running.

44 $Conf{ServerHost} = '';
45
46 #
47 # TCP port number on which the BackupPC server listens for and accepts
48 # connections. Normally this should be disabled (set to -1). The TCP
49 # port is only needed if apache runs on a different machine from BackupPC.
50 # In that case, set this to any spare port number over 1024 (eg: 2359).
51 # If you enable the TCP port, make sure you set $Conf{ServerMesgSecret}
52 # too!
53 #
54 $Conf{ServerPort} = -1;
55
56 #
57 # Shared secret to make the TCP port secure. Set this to a hard to guess
58 # string if you enable the TCP port (ie: $Conf{ServerPort} > 0).
59 #
60 # To avoid possible attacks via the TCP socket interface, every client
61 # message is protected by an MD5 digest. The MD5 digest includes four
62 # items:
63 # - a seed that is sent to the client when the connection opens
64 # - a sequence number that increments for each message
65 # - a shared secret that is stored in $Conf{ServerMesgSecret}
66 # - the message itself.
67 #
68 # The message is sent in plain text preceded by the MD5 digest. A
69 # snooper can see the plain-text seed sent by BackupPC and plain-text
70 # message from the client, but cannot construct a valid MD5 digest since
71 # the secret $Conf{ServerMesgSecret} is unknown. A replay attack is
72 # not possible since the seed changes on a per-connection and
73 # per-message basis.
74 #
75 $Conf{ServerMesgSecret} = '';

78 # PATH setting for BackupPC. An explicit value is necessary
79 # for taint mode. Value shouldn't matter too much since
80 # all execs use explicit paths. However, taint mode in perl
81 # will complain if this directory is world writable.
82 #
83 $Conf{MyPath} = '/bin';

86 # Permission mask for directories and files created by BackupPC.
87 # Default value prevents any access from group other, and prevents

93 # Times at which we wake up, check all the PCs, and schedule necessary
94 # backups. Times are measured in hours since midnight. Can be
95 # fractional if necessary (eg: 4.25 means 4:15am).
96 #
97 # If the hosts you are backing up are always connected to the network
98 # you might have only one or two wakeups each night. This will keep
99 # the backup activity after hours. On the other hand, if you are backing
100 # up laptops that are only intermittently connected to the network you
101 # will want to have frequent wakeups (eg: hourly) to maximized the chance
102 # that each laptop is backed up.
103 #
104 # Examples:
105 # $Conf{WakeupSchedule} = [22.5]; # once per day at 10:30 pm.
106 # $Conf{WakeupSchedule} = [1..23]; # every hour except midnight
107 # $Conf{WakeupSchedule} = [2,4,6,8,10,12,14,16,18,20,22]; # every 2 hours
108 #
109 # The default value is every hour except midnight.
110 #
111 # The first entry of $Conf{WakeupSchedule} is when BackupPC_nightly
112 # is run. No other backups can run while BackupPC_nightly is
113 # running. You might want to re-arrange the entries in
114 # $Conf{WakeupSchedule} (they don't have to be ascending) so that
115 # the first entry is when you want BackupPC_nightly to run
116 # (eg: when you don't expect a lot of regular backups to run).
117 #
118 $Conf{WakeupSchedule} = [1..23];

121 # Maximum number of simultaneous backups to run. If there
122 # are no user backup requests then this is the maximum number
123 # of simultaneous backups.

136 # started if there are no more than $Conf{MaxPendingCmds} plus
137 # $Conf{MaxBackups} number of pending link commands, plus running jobs.
138 # This limit is to make sure BackupPC doesn't fall too far behind in
139 # running BackupPC_link commands.

147 # BackupPC_nightly is run. Its job is to remove unneeded files
148 # in the pool, ie: files that only have one link. To avoid race
149 # conditions, BackupPC_nightly runs only when there are no backups
150 # running, and no backups will start while it runs.
151 #
152 # So to reduce the elapsed time, you might want to increase this
153 # setting to run several BackupPC_nightly processes in parallel
154 # (eg: 4, or even 8).

158 #
159 # How many days (runs) it takes BackupPC_nightly to traverse the
160 # entire pool. Normally this is 1, which means every night it runs,
161 # it does traverse the entire pool removing unused pool files.
162 #
163 # Other valid values are 2, 4, 8, 16. This causes BackupPC_nightly to
164 # traverse 1/2, 1/4, 1/8 or 1/16th of the pool each night, meaning it
165 # takes 2, 4, 8 or 16 days to completely traverse the pool. The
166 # advantage is that each night the running time of BackupPC_nightly
167 # is reduced roughly in proportion, since the total job is split
168 # over multiple days. The disadvantage is that unused pool files
169 # take longer to get deleted, which will slightly increase disk
170 # usage.
171 #
172 # Note that even when $Conf{BackupPCNightlyPeriod} > 1, BackupPC_nightly
173 # still runs every night. It just does less work each time it runs.
174 #
175 # Examples:
176 #
177 # $Conf{BackupPCNightlyPeriod} = 1; # entire pool is checked every night
178 #
179 # $Conf{BackupPCNightlyPeriod} = 2; # two days to complete pool check
180 # # (different half each night)
181 #
182 # $Conf{BackupPCNightlyPeriod} = 4; # four days to complete pool check
183 # # (different quarter each night)

189 # These files are aged nightly. A setting of 14 means the log
190 # directory will contain about 2 weeks of old log files, in
191 # particular at most the files LOG, LOG.0, LOG.1, ... LOG.13
192 # (except today's LOG, these files will have a .z extension if

345 # $Conf{TarShareName} = ['/home', '/src']; # backup /home and /src
346 #
347 # The fact this parameter is called 'TarShareName' is for historical
348 # consistency with the Smb transport options. You can use any valid
349 # directory on the client: there is no need for it to correspond to
350 # any Smb share or device mount point.
351 #
352 # Note also that you can also use $Conf{BackupFilesOnly} to specify
353 # a specific list of directories to backup. It's more efficient to

414 # Exponential backup expiry is also supported. This allows you to specify:

418 # - num fulls to keep at intervals of 4 * $Conf{FullPeriod},

430 # 2^n * $Conf{FullPeriod} (ie: 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 32, ...).
431 #
432 # The example above specifies keeping 4 of the most recent full backups
433 # (1 week interval) two full backups at 2 week intervals, and 3 full
434 # backups at 4 week intervals, eg:
435 #
436 # full 0 19 weeks old \
437 # full 1 15 weeks old >--- 3 backups at 4 * $Conf{FullPeriod}
438 # full 2 11 weeks old /

442 # full 6 2 weeks old \___ 4 backups at 1 * $Conf{FullPeriod}
443 # full 7 1 week old /
444 # full 8 current /
445 #
446 # On a given week the spacing might be less than shown as each backup
447 # ages through each expiry period. For example, one week later, a
448 # new full is completed and the oldest is deleted, giving:
449 #
450 # full 0 16 weeks old \
451 # full 1 12 weeks old >--- 3 backups at 4 * $Conf{FullPeriod}

465 # This will keep 10 full dumps, 4 most recent at 1 * $Conf{FullPeriod},
466 # followed by 4 at an interval of 4 * $Conf{FullPeriod} (approx 1 month
467 # apart), and then 2 at an interval of 32 * $Conf{FullPeriod} (approx
468 # 7-8 months apart).
