  2. Check the osc-config-backup log files for success.

    Log files are located in /osc-config-backup/log. One log report is created for each osc-config-backup step that generates backup data.

    If a step ran more than once, the .log report is rotated. The previous reports are renamed to .log.0, .log.1, up to .log.9, saving the reports of the last ten runs for a step.

    Use the reports to identify what was successfully backed up and what was not.

    For example::

    osccfbck@primDom$ egrep -i success osc-config-backup/log/*.log
  3. Check the osc-config-backup log files for warnings and errors.

    For example:

    osccfbck@primDom$ egrep -i 'error|warning' osc-config-backup/log/*.log
