I got creative, here you go all you need to do it call the functions for the additional operations.
- #!/bin/bash
- function SystemSpecs {
- uname -a
- }
- function VmStats {
- vmstat
- }

- echo Backup Started `date` >> ~/backuplog
- mkdir /mnt/usbdrive/backups/`date +%Y%m%d`
- tar -czf /mnt/usbdrive/backups/`date +%Y%m%d`/data.tar.gz /data
- echo Backup Completed `date` >> ~/backuplog
- }
- function ExitMessage {
- echo "Bye $USER"
- }
- function HdInfo {
