How do you write script to backup a data in unix?
A script may contain any commands that process a certain sequence of instructions. For backups you would include any or all commands to create backup files or archive files of what needs to be backed up. From the backup copy or archive copy you can transfer the information to a secondary media type. For that purpose you would need the commands to copy the information from one media to another. Writing a shell script to do anything is simple as long as you know what commands you intend to execute and the sequence. Backups are not any more complicated than running individual commands to do something.
