Hello, I am trying to build a global backup solution for couple of strategic servers (7) based on two operating systems :
- FreeBSD (6 - 7 // soon 7 - 8) - Ubuntu 8.04 LTS These servers are hosting some strategic components mainly related to DNS infrastructure and databases. For the moment I am backing up these server using network based backup solution: - A "duplicity" based solution which backs up key directories in my infrastructure on a remote FTP server provided by my hosting company. - A "dump" of some key components which I am doing on regular basis for FreeBSD servers. - Duplicity is also used for the Ubuntu servers. - Databases are replicated "live" on a remote server using "slony" for the most strategic ones (Postgres DB) and using mysql dump export for MySQL. • I am not a 100% sure these solutions will allow me to restart rapidly from a crash, specially for Ubuntu servers. • I would like to know which solution(s) you have deployed at what cost for what results ? I am actually considering couple of different solutions - SAIT solution and backula. - Disk based solution (maybe also with backula). … I have couple of servers that will reach their end of life that could be recycled as backup solution at a very convenient price… Thanks for you help. ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯ Gregober ---> PGP ID --> 0x1BA3C2FD bsd @at@ todoo.biz ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯ _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
