Dear all,
This has probably been asked numerous times, but I can't find a lot of detail
on the internet.
Firstly, I'm assuming that I should be backing up localhost for backuppc.
Please correct me if I'm wrong. I thought that it would be sensible to have a
backup of the settings and exclude all the cpool etc. If that is correct, I
thought that I should use rsync as the backup would be more accurate than tar.
Does this seem reasonable? I also thought that I should run this backup
without any compression so that it could in theory be restored without the need
for backuppc. Please correct me if any of these things don't make sense.
I also have a fairly large folder on the same server that I'd like to backup
with compression turned on. Is it possible to split the localhost backup into
2? Can I create 2 hosts with the same name and exclude each other's files and
have one running with compression and one without? Is there a better way to do
this?
Thanks in advance,
Phil.
