Hmmm, so I discovered something new (DRBD), I've been using NBD for
years quite successfully (only needed to failover to the backup twice).
Filesystem 1K-blocks Used Available Use% Mounted on
/dev/md4 464280160 269514136 194766024 59% /home
cat /proc/mdstat
Personalities : [raid1]
md4 : active raid1 nbd0[1] md3[0]
464294336 blocks [2/2] [UU]
Though this isn't used for backuppc, just smbd server... I see drbd adds
some more intelligence to this, and I'll need to investigate it further.
Thanks for your feedback on this useful tool to sync backuppc.
Regards,
Adam
