I am in the process of upgrading my computers from Fedora Core 5 to Core 6
(actually K12LTSP5-->6).
I want to install BackupPC version 3.0 and I want to copy the configuration
and backup information I already have.
My /var/lib/BackupPC directory is on a separate hard drive. I want to use
the new filesystem layout with version 3 so I have moved my config files to
/etc/BackupPC/conf renaming as necessary then created softlinks to them
from the old location.
These are the steps I am thinking of taking.
Following this guide http://www.capefox.com/howto/JonosLinuxTopTips.htm
1. Install BackupPC 2.1.2 using yum install backuppc
2. Copy /etc/BackupPC/ to new server.
3. Upgrade to v 3
4. Mount /var/lib/BackupPC from old hard drive.
Is this the right way to go about it?
Correct order?
Did I miss anything?
