[awips2-users] AWIPS II Backup Script

Hello,


I have a script that I found in an AWIPS II document on the internet a while 
ago, and was subsequently modified for my setup at work, that backs up the 
configuration files within the awips2/edex/data/utility directory as a zip 
file.  It copies the files into the zip file, but for some reason at the end of 
zipping the files, it starts all over again in a continous loop.


Perhaps a fresh pair of eyes can see what mine can't.


Thanks,


Brian Bernard

   sites=$1
else
   sites=`ls -1 ${EDEX_HOME}/data/utility/`

for site in ${sites}
do
   echo "Backing up $sites..."
   tar --exclude "ffmp/aggrGeom" --exclude "*/base/*" -cvzf 
/data/fxa/TEMP/localization.tar */*
   echo ""
   echo "Finished backing up AWIPS II EDEX configuration files at... $(date)"
done
