Yeah I will go in to the wikia site later and try to point direct links to the new wiki pages...
I'll look at that URL - I actually have a two-phase backup. A daily cronjob running out of /etc/cron.daily that does svndump, mysqldump, tarball of /etc and a few other configurations around the server and dumps it into /backup/$date. It removes the /backup/$date from 28 days ago (configurable) so it does not fill up - I figure a ~ month is good enough. Then I have a process that runs on the backup server (offsite) that does an rsync of the /backups/ dir and /home/ - it does a ZFS snapshot of the home backup. So ZFS snapshots are for /home (nothing setup to remove them yet, so they will be there forever until I decide to delete some snapshots, or auto-delete older ones) and the daily config/db backups are not snapshotted as they're already daily in their 20081117 directory for example. This gives me daily snapshots of both the /home data and all configs, dbs, svn repo, etc. I can if I need to diff two sql dumps, or even diff the /home filesystem since ZFS has records of it all... so I think I have taken care of what Brian was looking for, at least when I took a quick glance at his blog post.
