@ -25,6 +25,8 @@ ec2-automate-backup requires one of the following two parameters be provided:
`-n` - tag snapshots "Name" tag as well as description
`-h` - tag snapshots "InitiatingHost" tag to specify which host ran the script
`-k <purge_after_days>` - the period after which a snapshot can be purged. For example, running "ec2-automate-backup.sh -v "vol-6d6a0527 vol-636a0112" -k 31" would allow snapshots to be removed after 31 days. purge_after_days creates two tags for each volume that was backed up - a PurgeAllow tag which is set to PurgeAllow=true and a PurgeAfter tag which is set to the present day (in UTC) + the value provided by -k.
`-p` - the -p flag will purge (meaning delete) all snapshots that were created more than "purge after days" ago. ec2-automate-backup looks at two tags to determine which snapshots should be deleted - the PurgeAllow and PurgeAfter tags. The tags must be set as follows: PurgeAllow=true and PurgeAfter=YYYY-MM-DD where YYYY-MM-DD must be before the present date.
