Hiiii,
here is my script--
BackupLocation="$OPTARG"
if [[ $LFlag -eq 1 ]]; then
echo "Either option l or L should be given to $Programname"
echo "$Usage"
echo "$Programname is terminated"
return $ERR;
fi
if [[ $isBackUp -eq 1 ]];
then
if [[ ! -d $BackupLocation ]];
then
echo "Non-existant directory specified"
fi
#givenPath="$BackupLocation"
BackupLocation=$BackupLocation/backup
mkdir -p $BackupLocation >/dev/null 2>&1
if [[ $? = 0 ]];
then
echo "$Programname creates the dirctory $BackupLocation"
else
echo "$Programname could not able to create the directory $BackupLocation"
return $ERR
fi
lFlag=1
Llcron=l
else
echo "$Programname is executed with -l option without action mtBackup"
echo "$Usage"
echo "$Programname is terminated"
return $ERR
fi
;;
when i run this script through cronjob,then i am getting a directory creation problem.
supoose the directory name which i am giving is--
/home/namish
then my creates a directory called
/home/namish/backup
when i run it through cron then it again creates the directory backup inside backup directory.I can see my script is like that only but i want to modify this,can you please give me some valueable inputs so that this problem can be resolved.
The outcome should be when i run the script through cron it should not create the dir inside the backup di,instaed it should take backup onlyin the dir /home/namish/backup.If you need any moreclarification then please let me know.
Thanks..
