Maltfield Log/2020 Q2

From Open Source Ecology
Jump to navigation Jump to search

My work log from the year 2020 Quarter 2. I intentionally made this verbose to make future admin's work easier when troubleshooting. The more keywords, error messages, etc that are listed in this log, the more helpful it will be for the future OSE Sysadmin.

  1. Our monthly backup report came in with issues:
    1. the first-of-the-month backup is missing for April 1st
    2. the day before's March 31st's backup is also missing
    3. the day before that's March 30th's backup is actually present in the file listing, but it says that it thinks the day before yesterday's backup is actually April 1st, not March 30th--this one may be a bug in the backup report script


ATTENTION: BACKUPS MISSING!


WARNING: First of this month's backup (20200401) is missing!
WARNING: Yesterday's backup (20200402) is missing!
WARNING: The day before yesterday's backup (20200401) is missing!
