| i wrote a [[burp backup report generator script|script to send reports on a daily basis]] listing all backups and their age. since burp does not run a backup of all machines at once, but rather lets the client machines start a new backup whenever it is due, we have to create a backup report independent of any running jobs at a fixed time of the day (or week).
