→Create Full and Incremental Backups of cloning-source VM
# Perform a Net-search to use the '''pv''' (''pipe-viewer'') command to show a text-based indicator of backup for EACH VM image file. You need to add the EPEL repository (taught in OPS235) to install the pv command.
# Set execute permissions for this script, and run this Bash shell script prior to exiting your assignment work session to properly backup your cloning source. You should also make a copy of the backup on an external device (such as a USB key).
# Set-up via Cron for a crontab entry, an '''incremental backup''' of the '''/etc/ ''' directory of your cloning -source to be performed every hour to the '''/backup/incremental/cloning-source''' directory (that you should be createdcreate).
