Backup
I have seen several backup schemes and several backup tools but none gives me the type of configuration I want.
Therefore after much testing and practice , I have developed an LVM based snapshotting environment.
All my partitions are on LVM execpt for boot.
And I after I have done a full install of slackware13.1 , I made a snapshot of it and I will try to do backup based on original logical volumes and snapshot logical volumes such as ::
ln `snapshot partion` /HardLinkedSnapshot
rsync OriginalLogicalVolume /HardLinkedSnapshot -Ab --backup=/backup
rm -rf /HardLinkedSnapshot
tar -cvvf IncrementalBackupOFMyPartition-`date`.tar /backup
xz -vvv9e IncrementalBackupOFMyPartition-`date`.tar
Is this correct or are there any other steps to take?
Since this be in my cron at 6am and i intend to have NFS mounts.
