I'm trying to set up a BackupPC server with an eye to the future so that I can expand storage easily, so I want LVM with RAID (unfortunately it'll have to be RAID 1, as I can't see that LVM and software-RAID 5 work together, but that's another issue :-().
Anyway, I can't figure out from the documentation where BPC keeps the backup data. The online documentation [1] says "Note that distributions may choose to use different locations for BackupPC files than these defaults." Where is __TOPDIR__ for BackupPC on Ubuntu/Debian? That's where the backups and logs are stored now. Is there a recommended partitioning schema for BackupPC? What are people here using? /boot 100mb / 3 gb /home 10 gb /var rest of volume / disk / LVM TIA Angus -- Angus Scott-Fleming GeoApps, Tucson, Arizona http://www.geoapps.com/ --------------------------------------------------------- [1] http://backuppc.sourceforge.net/faq/BackupPC.html#backuppc_design ------------------------------------------------------------------------- SF.Net email is sponsored by: The Future of Linux Business White Paper from Novell.
