NAME

       BACKUPNINJA.CONF - Configuration file(s) for backupninja (1).

SYNOPSIS

       /etc/backupninja.conf

DESCRIPTION

       backupninja.conf is the general configuration file. In this file you can set the log level and change the
       default directory locations.  You can force a different general configuration file with  "backupninja  -f
       /path/to/conf".

OPTIONS

       loglevel
              How verbose to make the logs.
              5 = Debugging messages
              4 = Informational messages
              3 = Warnings
              2 = Errors
              1 = Fatal errors

       reportemail
              Send a summary of the backup status to this email address

       reportsuccess
              If set to 'yes', a report email will be generated even if all modules reported success.

       reportwarning
              If set to 'yes', a report email will be generated even if there was no error.

       logfile
              The path of the logfile.

       configdirectory
              The directory where all the backup action configuration files live.

       scriptdirectory
              Where backupninja handler scripts are found

       usecolors
              If set to 'yes', use colors in the log file and debug output.

       when   When  to  process  each  configuration  file.  The  value  used  here  will  be  applied  for each
              configuration file. It is possibile to override this "when" in each each configuration  file,  see
              also section "Scheduling" in backup.d(5).

              For example:

                when = sundays at 02:00
                when = 30th at 22
                when = 30 at 22:00
                when = everyday at 01            <-- the default
                when = Tuesday at 05:00

              These values for 'when' are equivalent:

                when = tuesday at 05:30
                when = TUESDAYS at 05

              These values for 'when' are invalid:

                when = tuesday at 2am
                when = tuesday at 2
                when = tues at 02

       vservers
              If  you  are  using Linux-Vservers (http://linux-vserver.org), there are some special capabilities
              that different handlers have to make vserver backups easier.  See the example configuration  files
              for each handler to configure the vserver specific variables.

DEFAULTS

       loglevel = 4
       reportemail = root
       reportsuccess = yes
       reportwarning = yes
       logfile = /var/log/backupninja.log
       configdirectory = /etc/backup.d
