QuickstartΒΆ

  • Install the program:

    # layman -L && layman -a lmiphay
    

    Keyword the program, e.g.:

    app-oam/bun ~amd64
    

    Add app-oam as a category (if it is not already):

    # echo app-oam >>/etc/portage/categories
    

    Then:

    # emerge app-oam/bun
    
  • Review the default settings, make any local changes:

    # vi /etc/bun/bun.yaml
    
  • See what operations a default backup would do:

    # bun pretend
    
  • And then kick off a default backup:

    # bun backup
    
  • Watch the progress of the backup:

    # bun watch
    
  • At some later point verify the checksums of a specified backup:

    # bun verify --timestamp=20171915-154431
    
  • Restore a specific backup to a specified location:

    # bun restore --timestamp=20171915-154431 --location=/var/tmp
