From RdiffBackupWiki

written some crude but functional scripts to run my backups and mail me important stuff. Below is the script that strips out unimportant stuff from rdiff-backup output. It is invoked as follows:

<pre>

 # run the backups and shove output into a file
 /some/path/backup-script >/var/logs/backups/backup-`date +%Y-%m-%d` 2>&1
 # run the backup-report generator and mail the output someplace
 /some/path/backup-report /var/logs/backups/backup-`date +%Y-%m-%d` || 
   mail -s "`hostname` Backup Report `date +%Y-%m-%d`" 

myaddress@mydomain.foo

 # compress the output file
 bzip2 /var/logsbackups/backup-`date +%Y-%m-%d`

</pre>

I typically invoke rdiff-backup at -v6.

Here's the report generator:
