Hi Jeroen,
and then, I prefer restic in many cases. It was written to solve some
shortcomings of borg.
But still I think, borgbackup is a good and widespread choice for LPI.
What bothers me, is the timing: borg 2.0 is around and will be a major
“breaking” release that is not compatible with existing repos. command
line syntax was changed.
Regards,
Ingo

Why? It's completely open source. It supports encryption of data so it
is secure.
Yes, it also supports closed source backends like the ones you mention,
but also every existing open ones like NFS and local file storage.
It is, imho, a very good backup tool.
Regards,
Jeroen Baten

May I suggest to add rclone to the list of backup tools?
I don't think it's a good idea. IMHO, rclone is related to many services
like Google Drive, Dropbox, etc. where isn't the ideal solution to
create a proper backup.

Hi,
here are my 2 cents:
https://wiki.lpi.org/wiki/LPIC-2_Objectives_V5.0#Objectives:_Exam_201
<https://wiki.lpi.org/wiki/LPIC-2_Objectives_V5.0#Objectives:_Exam_201>
201.1
remove rmmod, insmod because modprobe can do better
remove udevmonitor - udevadm monitor can do
201.3
remove GRUB Legacy
Since master boot record is covered, also take GPT.
202.1
remove this topic completely, because it is covered in
LPIC-1 already (except automount).
203.1
partition type 0xFD
are partition types still relevant and why?
204.1
remove iwconfig and iwlist, outdated
204.2
remove nmtui, because nmcli should do
204.3
is /etc/HOSTNAME still in use?
205.1
remove compression tools as well as tar, because
handled in LPIC-1 already
205.2
remove rsync, no state of the art backup solution anymore
remove Bacula, Bareos and BackupPC I suggest
to take borgbackup instead
remove references to magnetic tapes
remove dd covered in LPIC-1 already
205.3
remove htop, top is more difficult to learn but covers much more
iptraf is the (almost) only tool mentioned to measure
network performance, are there other or even better tools?
netstat is deprecated
Best regards,
Werner
