# Name of the rotation.schedule to be used (must be located under SARAB_ETC)
# Default="rotation.schedule"
ROTATION_SCHEDULE="rotation.schedule"

# Root directory where backups will be created and stored
# Note: Use the rotation.schedule file to specify the names of virtual tapes
# Default="/mnt/backup/"

# The name and location of the log file that SaraB should use
# Default="var/log/sarab.log"
