Has anyone found a way to mirror a mission-critical RAQ server to another RAQ server?

I have a bunch of RAQ4 servers. One has over 2000 email users with RAID, but if the server dies (it has before) then I'm in deep s%^t!

I backup using the RAQ and cmuExport. I ftp the cmu files to a backup server nightly and can restore within 1 hour.

Anyone found a way to mirror RAQ servers???

If you are talking about mirroring two RaQs, why not use rsync:

:confused:

1. I tried rsync and the user and groups settings were are messed up. Plus the passwords are incorrect

2. I tried tar then rsync then untar. The settings are correct but the passwords are not. Image tar /home/site. That's over 1 GB.


3. I stuck using cmuImport.

Anyone got a better solution. Even for sale!!???:angry:
