How to include custom files or folders in op5-backup

Single folder backup Copied

If you want to include a custom folder, for example ‘/opt/monitor/foo/’ in op5-backup, then create the file ‘/etc/op5-backup/modules/external/foo’ with the following content:

DESCRIPTION="Custom file collection"

FILES_TO_BACKUP="
/opt/monitor/foo
"

function CHECK()
{
 return 0
}

Multiple folder backup Copied

Should you want to include another folder, just add it to the list:

DESCRIPTION="Custom file collection"

FILES_TO_BACKUP="
/opt/monitor/foo
/opt/monitor/bar
"

function CHECK()
{
 return 0
}

Conclusion Copied

Now the folders listed in foo will be included every op5-backup run.
