Hey guys, I'm interested in hearing what backup scripts do you all use for a harddisk to harddisk backup within the same server? I've looked around, but would like to hear some user comments :)

Do you have a second hard drive installed in the system? tkchan 03-02-2003, 01:24 PM You may try something like this: (tar -clf - -C / . | tar xpf - -C /drive2) > /drive2/backup.log 2>&1 The above automatically mirror your drive1 to drive2 drhonk 03-02-2003, 01:26 PM Use rsync .. its better. :) tkchan 03-02-2003, 01:36 PM hehe... rsync -azb / /drive2 code_renegade 03-03-2003, 09:11 AM It's a Redhat 7.2, with an identical 2nd harddrive installed.
