# VBackup - A modular backup utility
The full documentation of vbackup can be found at:
http://vbackup.readthedocs.org/
# Overview
vbackup is an extensible CLI backup tool. Ultimately it is a collection of
scripts that perform backup of systems. It is based on bash and should support
most of the unices out there (if not then please report it as a bug).
From a user's point of view, vbackup simplifies the backup process by
requiring a config file for everything that otherwise would require a
custom made script.
Vbackup can backup:
* Postgresql databases
* MySQL databases
* Filesystems using GNU tar
* XFS filesystems using xfsdump
* dpkg and RPM databases
* MBR, Partition tables, MD and LVM information
* OpenLDAP database
The backup procedure is completely customizable and extendable by the user.
vbackup supports multiple backup strategies and each one can supports
multiple levels. For example, one can have a backup strategy for filesystem
backups and another for VM backups or for testing
# Sample
After configuring vbackup, backups become as simple as:
```
# vbackup 0
```
