Hi, I have created a shell script for the restic backup and set a cron job to run the shell script. It recently returned the exit status code 3 after the backup.
In the shell script, it runs the backup and check the exit status code as follow and the result is saved in a file:
echo sudo -u restic /home/restic/bin/restic -r $backup_repo_path --verbose backup $backup_item_path >> $output_file
echo “Exit status code : $?” >> $output_file
When I got the exit status code 3, I tried to check the ouput file but I cannot get hints on why it is returning the exit status code 3. The information for the backup saved in the file is as follow:
open repository
reading repository password from stdin
lock repository
load index files
using parent snapshot 40e1709c
start scan on [/path/to/backup]
start backup on [/path/to/backup]
scan finished in 20.170s: 3490 files, 527.915 MiB

May I know how to save more information about the backup and check for the data that are not read? Thanks.
