Automated Backups

Meteobridge PRO adds a backup script to the selection of shell scripts to be started on certain conditions. When triggered, this backup script looks for a connected USB drive (with a FAT or EXT3 filesystem) and copies the current database containing all stored sensor data to the USB drive. Copied file has a date/time stamp in the file name. When storage is getting low on the USB stick, the oldest backups will be deleted in order to be able to store new backups. This mechanism allows you to have an external USB stick constantly connected to the Meteobridge PRO and to schedule daily backups onto that, without worrying if USB stick gets filled up over time. While backup script is executed, logging of new data is halted (queued up). Script name in drop-down list is "backup".
