Hi all, I am running Open Solaris 2008.11 on my laptop with Open Solaris using the entire HD, 160GB. I have several 3.5" HD's that I will be mirroring or replicating my data to prevent data loss.
I am currently backing up snapshots onto the external drive manually using the zfs send command: [code] zfs send rpool/virtualBox at WindowsXPInstalledAndUpdated | zfs receive LaptopClone/virtualBox [/code] Now, I can write a very simple script to automate copying of the latest snapshots to my clone drive, but is there a better way to accomplish this? I am thinking more of creating a RaidZ pool where, whenever the device is attached, it automatically begins updating the out of sync drive. And, if I partition the drive more, my script would not change. I would attach the device to the pool and when finished copying, detach it. Walter -- This message posted from opensolaris.org
