    Team:

    I am writing a small script to copy the home dir's
    from 3 machines. Pl find my script below..Please help
    if there are any mistakes..My first attempt..

    #!/usr/bin/sh

    ###################################################################
     # SCRIPT NAME : HomeBackup.sh
     # AUTHOR : Brian
     # DATE :
     # VERSION NO : 1.0
     # PURPOSE : This script takes backup of /home
    Machines ns1, ns2, ns3 to /home directories to as50
    server.
     #

    PATH=$PATH:/usr/bin:/usr/sbin:/usrlocal/bin:/usr/contrib/bin:/opt/perf/bin
    export TERM=vt100
    export PATH

    LOG_FILE=/tmp/HomeBackup.log
    exec >> $LOG_FILE 2>&1

    ns1_Home_Size=`remsh ns1 /usr/bin/bdf |grep home |awk
    '{ if ($6 == "/home") print $3 }'`
    if [ $? -eq 1 ]
    then
            echo "`date '+%D %T'` ns1 remote execution permission
    is not available"
            exit 1
    fi

    ns2_Home_Size=`remsh ns2 /usr/bin/bdf |grep home |awk
    '{ if ($6 == "/home") print $3 }'`
    if [ $? -eq 1 ]
    then
            echo "`date '+%D %T'` ns2 remote execution permission
    is not available"
            exit 1
    fi
    ns3_Home_Size=`remsh ns3 /usr/bin/bdf |grep home |awk
    '{ if ($6 == "/home") print $3 }'`
    if [ $? -eq 1 ]
    then
            echo "`date '+%D %T'` ns3 remote execution permission
    is not available"
            exit 1
    fi
    Total_used_space=`expr $ns1_Home_Size + $ns2_Home_Size
    + $ns3_Home_Size`
    Availed_space=`/usr/bin/bdf |grep depot|awk '{ if ($6
    == "/depot") print $4 }'`

    # Check free space is available on as50:/depot
    if [ $Availed_space -lt $Total_used_space ]
    then
            echo "`date '+%D %T'` Error: There is not enough
    space under /depot "
            exit 1
    fi

    #Copy ns1 /home directory to as50:/depot/ns1
    if [ -f /home/ns1/home ]
    then
            rcp -rp ns1/home /depot/ns1/home
    fi

    #Copy ns2 /home directory to as50:/depot/ns2
    if [ -f /home/ns2/home ]
    then
            rcp -rp ns2:/home /depot/ns2/home
    fi

    #Copy ns3 /home directory to as50:/depot/ns3
    if [ -f /home/ns3/home ]
    then
            rcp -rp ns3:/home /depot/ns3/home
    fi

    My questions:

    Is rcp a good approach or can i use fbackup etc..

    Is there anyhting wrong with the script?

    Please Help

    Best Regards

    Brian
