simple backup script using rsync + tar

backup.sh

#!/bin/bash
TODAY=$(date +%Y%m%d)
TARGETS=( '/etc' '/home' '/root' '/var/www' )
BACKUP_ROOT='/backups'
BACKUP_DIR="${BACKUP_ROOT}/${TODAY}"

echo "$(date +%D" "%r): Beginning backup"
mkdir -p $BACKUP_DIR

for i in ${TARGETS[@]}; do
    if rsync -Ra $i ${BACKUP_DIR}; then
        echo "Successfully backed up $i"
    else
        echo "Failed backing up $i"
    fi
done

if tar -czf "${BACKUP_DIR}.tgz" $BACKUP_DIR &> /dev/null; then
    rm -rf $BACKUP_DIR
    echo "Successfully compressed ${BACKUP_DIR}"
else
    rm -rf $BACKUP_DIR
    echo "Failed compressing ${BACKUP_DIR}.tgz"
    echo "$(date +%D" "%r): Backup failed"
    exit 1
fi

echo "Removing backups older than 30 days"
find $BACKUP_ROOT -name '*.tgz' -mtime +30 -delete -print
echo "$(date +%D" "%r): Backup complete"

thanks for the scrypt, can you make one to restore?
