#!/usr/bin/env bash # ── Sovran Hub External Backup Script ──────────────────────────── # Backs up Sovran_SystemsOS data to an external USB hard drive using rsync. # Designed for the Hub web UI (no GUI dependencies). # # Your Sovran Pro already backs up your data automatically to its # internal second drive (BTCEcoandBackup at /run/media/Second_Drive). # This script creates an additional copy on an external USB drive — # storing your data in a third location for maximum protection. # # The external drive must be formatted as ext4. Files are stored as # directly browsable files under Sovran_SystemsOS_Backup/current/. # Later runs update the same mirror and only transfer changed or new # files, making repeat backups fast. # # PostgreSQL and MariaDB/MySQL databases are NOT included. Bitcoin # blockchain and Electrs index data are NOT included (they live on # the internal second drive). # # Usage: # BACKUP_TARGET=/run/media// bash sovran-hub-backup.sh # (or run with no env var to auto-detect the first external USB drive) set -euo pipefail BACKUP_LOG="/var/log/sovran-hub-backup.log" BACKUP_STATUS="/var/log/sovran-hub-backup.status" MEDIA_ROOT="/run/media" HUB_CONFIG_JSON="/var/lib/sovran-hub/config.json" ROLE_STATE_NIX="/etc/nixos/role-state.nix" SECOND_DRIVE_MOUNT="/run/media/Second_Drive" SAFETY_MARGIN_BYTES=$((1024 * 1024 * 1024)) # ── Internal drive labels/paths to NEVER use as backup targets ─── INTERNAL_LABELS=("BTCEcoandBackup" "sovran_systemsos") INTERNAL_MOUNTS=("$SECOND_DRIVE_MOUNT" "/boot/efi" "/") FAILED_ALREADY=0 BACKUP_COMPLETE=0 RSYNC_WARNINGS=() # Stable mirror path — not timestamped so later runs update the same # destination and only transfer new or changed files.
