Documentation for the export command of the Smos Archiving tool, for exporting your archive to cold storage.
When your archive directory becomes too big, this can get in the way of things like running smos-query
commands quickly, and small periodic backups.
The smos-archive export
command lets you export (pieces of) your archive to an external directory for cold storage.
Example usage:
smos-archive export /path/to/export/dir --last-year --also-delete-originals
smos-archive export DIRECTORY_PATH [[--begin DAY] [--end DAY] | --yesterday | --today | --tomorrow | --last-week | --past-week | --this-week | --coming-week | --next-week | --last-month | --past-month | --this-month | --coming-month | --next-month | --last-year | --past-year | --this-year | --coming-year | --next-year | --all-time] [FILTER] [--also-delete-originals]
DIRECTORY_PATH The directory to export the archive to
--begin start date (inclusive)
--end end time (inclusive)
--yesterday yesterday
--today today
--tomorrow tomorrow
--last-week last week
--past-week the past week
--this-week this week
--coming-week the coming week
--next-week next week
--last-month last month
--past-month the past month
--this-month this month
--coming-month the coming month
--next-month next month
--last-year last year
--past-year the past year
--this-year this year
--coming-year the coming year
--next-year next year
--all-time all time
