Description

Cloned from https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1445989

Description of problem: Incremental backup script in effect is performing full backup.

One error similar to the following:

cp: cannot stat ‘*.snar’: No such file or directory

It seems that the below files are used to provide a diff. As they weren't being read, customer was getting a full backup instead of an incremental backup.

.config.snar
.mongo.snar
.postgres.snar
.pulp.snar

Adding the '.' to the command on line 131 fixed the problem:

`cp #{@options[:incremental]}/.*.snar .` if @options[:incremental]

Below is the difference between two files.

=================================================================
  1. diff u katello-backup katello-backup.new
    --
    katello-backup 2017-02-03 10:01:31.000000000 -0500
    +++ katello-backup.new 2017-04-25 09:56:54.162505948 -0400
    @ -128,7 +128,7 @
    `tar --selinux --create --gzip --file=config_files.tar.gz --listed-incremental=.config.snar #{CONFIGS.join(' ')}`
    puts "Done."

- `cp #{@options[:incremental]}/*.snar .` if @options[:incremental]
+ `cp #{@options[:incremental]}/.*.snar .` if @options[:incremental] =================================================================

if @options[:online]
backup_db_online

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

How reproducible: Reproducible at customer's environment.

Steps to Reproduce: Take incremental backup using the below command.

  1. katello-backup /path/to/dir --incremental [PREVIOUS_BACKUP_DIR]

Actual results: Incremental backup script is performing full backup.

Expected results: It should perform incremental backup.

Additional info: Customer had provided the above solution which they expect to be included in future release or to fix the issue.
