Description
https://github.com/influxdata/plutonium/pull/3659
`influxd-ctl backup` now supports a new flag, `-estimate`, which prints an estimate of the number of bytes a backup would transfer. When the flag is specified, the *directory* parameter becomes optional (previously, it was always required).
`influxd-ctl backup` now also prints status messages during backup. These messages are printed after each file is backed up, and every 5 seconds during the process. These message are always printed during backup; there is no flag or parameter to control them. They look similar to the following:
`Files: 8 / 9 Bytes: 189543424 / 231921095 Completed: 82% in 22s Estimated remaining: 3s`
These features were requested by Support to help planning backups.
