-**** ${SCRIPT_NAME} ****
-**** (c) KUDOS BVBA - UNIX (Patrick Van der Veken) ****
-
-Performs an mksysb, backupios, viosbr backup of an AIX/VIOS host to a
-local, NIM-based or NFS location; optionally creates a snap of the host.
-
-Syntax: ${SCRIPT_NAME} [--help] | [--version] | (--local-dir=<local_directory> | 
-                --use-nfs --nfs-dir=<remote_directory> |
-                    --use-nim --nim-dir=<remote_directory>)
-                        [--is-vios [--is-ivm]]
-                            [--make-snap] [--no-log] [--log-dir=<log_directory>]
-                                [--send-alert [--mail-to=<address_list>]]
-
-                                
-Parameters:
-
---is-ivm        - perform a bkprofdata backup for VIOS using IVM (non-HMC)
---is-vios       - perform a backup using viosbr (IOS 2.1+) and backupios
-                  tools if the client host is a VIO server.
---local-dir     - location of the save directory on a local filesystem.
---log-dir       - specify a log directory location.
---mail-to       - list of e-mail address(es) to which e-mails will to be send to.
---make-snap     - make an AIX snap (cfr. IBM support).
---nfs-dir       - location of the save directory on the NFS server. Format must be in typical
-                  NFS mount notation, i.e. nfs_srv:/nfs_dir.
---nim-dir       - location of the save directory on the NIM master server. Client hostname
-                  is automatically appended to the given value when automounting the directory.
---no-log        - do not log any messages to the script log file.
---send-alert    - alert via e-mail upon occurrence of errors/warnings.
---use-nfs       - create the backup on a NFS mount shared by an NFS server. 
-                  See Pre-requisites section below.
---use-nim       - create the backup on a NFS mount shared by the NIM master. 
-                  See Pre-requisites section below.
---version       : show the script version/release/fix
-
-Pre-requisites for the NIM method:
-    1) NIM master must be configured to allow NFS mount from the client to the remote 
-       target directory. The NFS mount name must end in the NIM client's hostname
-       (see /etc/xtab, /etc/exports on NIM master).
-    2) NIM client (this host) must have AutoFS configured & active for /net 
-       (see /etc/auto_master).
-    3) A correctly configured /etc/niminfo file on the NIM client.
-     
-Pre-requisites for the NFS method:
-    1) NFS server must be configured to allow NFS mount from the client to the remote 
-       target directory (see /etc/xtab, /etc/exports on NFS server)
-
-Note 1: NIM & NFS methods both employ a remote NFS mount for storage and as such they operate
-        in a similar manner. The NIM method differs in that it will try auto-discover which
-        host is the NIM master. In both cases you must have forward & reverse naming resolution
-        working correctly!        
-
-Note 2: please make sure sufficient disk space is available at the save location to hold 
-        3 generations of backups during execution of the script. Only 2 generations will 
-        be available at any given time (one being temporary). You will find these generations
-        as the 'prev' and 'curr' directory sets in the save location.
