charon.local(1) charon.local(1) NAME charon.local - remove backup files that exceed a certain age from a local directoy SYNOPSIS charon.local --dir directory --maxage days (--profile identifier | --all) [--dry-run] [--verbose] [--help] The program charon.local removes backup archives created by tartarus from a local directory once they reach a certain age and expire. Files that are older than the number of days specified on the command line are considerer candidates for removal unless other, non-expired backups are based on them, so full backups may survive longer than expected. OPTIONS AND ARGUMENTS --dir Specify the directory the backups files are stored in. --maxage n Set the maximum number of days after which a backup is expired. --profile name Set the profile name to process. This is mandatory unless --all is supplied. --all When this is set, charon.local operates on all files disregarding the profile name. --dry-run This option prevents charon from actually deleting files. --verbose This option makes charon more verbose about the actions made --help This parameter shows a brief command reference. EXAMPLE The following command will remove alle files inside the directory /var/backups/tartarus/ created by Tartarus with the profile name "home" which exceed the age of 7 days: $ charon.local --dir /var/tartarus/backups/ --profile home --maxage 7 --verbose AUTHOR Stefan Tomanek <stefan.tomanek@wertarbyte.de> 0.9.8 2021-11-05 charon.local(1)
