Asterisk Backup Shell Script

This section details the way I currently backup my Asterisk server. The script will create a tar.gz file with all the required files and then copy them to a Windows computer where I can store/archive the backups. If I ever need to restore a file or rebuild the server I can easily restore the configuration by decompressing the tar.gz file.

strCurDate=$(date +%Y%m%d-%H%M)

mysqldump asterisk -p"mypassword"  >/root/$strCurDate-asterisk.sql
