# Script: host_backup.sh
# Description: This script securely backs up important host files to a
# designated mounted drive using rsync. It includes pre-run checks
# to ensure the source files and destination are valid, and sends
# ntfy notifications for each task.
# Usage: sudo ./hass_backup.sh
# Notes: This script may require sudo/root privileges to access files.
# Description: Securely backs up key host system configuration files (fstab,
# ddclient, crontabs, systemd units, and installed package lists)
# into timestamped directories on a mounted backup drive. Includes
# 30-day retention pruning and ntfy alerts.
# Usage: sudo ./host_backup.sh
# Notes: Requires sudo/root privileges to access system configuration files.
