WINSCP synchronizing server data to a PC disk on a command-line basis

Backup files are generated daily on the server and need to be synced to the local PC hard drive using the WINSCP tool. Usually is a graphical interface with the mouse click to synchronize, inefficient, so wrote WinSCP automatic synchronization script, and added to the scheduled task automatically run.

1. Create a backup private account on the Linux server:

chattr -i/etc/{passwd, Shadow,group,gshadow}useradd bak_userecho' 123456789 ' passwd --stdin bak_userchattr +i/etc/{passwd, Shadow,group,gshadow}  su - bak_userexit

2. Create the WINSCP synchronization script C:\SERV_BAK.txt, which synchronizes the data to the Local:

OptionEcho offoption Batch Continueoption confirmoff#no need to confirm direct Operation option Transfer binary
Option Synchdelete on#server If the file is not available, remove the local file from the open sftp:Bak_user:[email protected] Server ip:33302 #fill in the server account, password, IP, ssh port, respectivelyCD/Backup/bitmore.com #in the directory that you want to synchronize, all subdirectories and files in that directory are synchronized with the LCD C:\bitmore.com #Enter the local destination directory, the directory must be established beforehand, otherwise the file will be uploaded to the WINSCP program directory. Synchronize local#equivalent to Rsync, which synchronizes the data from the server side to local. Local: Sync locally. Remote: Sync to peer closeExit

3. Execute in Windows side CMD window:

CD Files (x86) \winscpwinscp. Exe/console/script=c:\serv_bak. txt If you have multiple servers to synchronize, it is best to write a WINSCP script separately for each server. And then combine them into *. bat file Batch execution: Start cmd /C "D:\Program Files (x86) \winscp\winscp.exe"/console/script=c:\serv_bak.txt
Start cmd /C "D:\Program Files (x86) \winscp\winscp.exe"/console/script=c:\serv_bak02.txt
Start/min cmd/c "D:\Program Files (x86) \winscp\winscp.exe"/console/script=c:\serv_bak03.txt

The above command will open 3 cmd windows at the same time to execute. Start: Opens a new window,/min: Minimized run main window,/C: Original window closed

4. Add the Windows scheduled task to automatically complete the synchronization operation at the scheduled time:
Run--"taskschd.msc

Get. The PC keeps booting after work. The hands were freed from this.
