server_status=$?

server_status_on=0

if [$server_status -eq $server_status_on ];

ssh -l ${BACKUP_SERVER_USERNAME}@${PRIMARY_SERVER_NAME} 'cmd /c ${SCAN_BATCH_FILE_WINDOWS} {$COPY_FILE_TO_WINDOWS}\'$1' else

scp -r $1 ${BACKUP_SERVER_USERNAME}@${BACKUP_SERVER_NAME}:${COPY_FILE_TO_WINDOWS}

create backup_script.sh

#!/bin/bash
BACKUP_SERVER_NAME="name"
BACKUP_SERVER_USERNAME="user"
COPY_FILE_TO_WINDOWS="/cygdrive/c/unix_test_copy"

scp -r $1 ${BACKUP_SERVER_USERNAME}@${BACKUP_SERVER_NAME}:${COPY_FILE_TO_WINDOWS}

make executable:

chmod +x backup_script.sh

run:

backup_script.sh /etc/

To debug, change 'scp -r $1 ${BACKUP_SERVER_USERNAME}@${BACKUP_SERVER_NAME}:${COPY_FILE_TO_WINDOWS}' to 'echo "scp -r $1 ${BACKUP_SERVER_USERNAME}@${BACKUP_SERVER_NAME}:${COPY_FILE_TO_WINDOWS}"' or run: set -x
