→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''' 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 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 create).
