Hi all,
Some time ago I raised a question if it was possible to merge two
servers together into one server, but no response came on that
questions, therefore I would like to ask it again.
I have two backup servers which were running fine, until we had a power
outage and one of the servers

thanks...
but if I have 2 drives like that, what should I do if one fails?
if the data drive fails, then you have the OS drive to use to recover your
data (if possible); or at least to quickly set up the new data drive.
if the OS drive fails, you put in a

I've had good results moving storage pools between RAID devices (for
maintenance) using xfsdump and xfsrestore. I'd recommend that you
investigate the dump/restore commands for your filesystem (I've learned to
avoid ext for anything over ~1TB but YMMV).
For locally attached devices, the rates

I agree that 3ware controllers are good hardware and worth the money,
but I suspect you are comparing the time of swapping an internal
drive vs. a swappable cage here. It's not that hard to type
an fdisk command followed by an mdadm --add command.
no,

Hi,
I installed the BackupPC 3.0.0Beta3 version. I'm taking a backup using rsync
of a linux host.
The backup gets created in the correct /data/-directory but there is no
logfile.

Problem solved ... it was a rights issue. Sorry

I did some test backups (full and incremental) with small folders and
everything was fine.

This is a problem. With 644 permissions, my rsyncd passwords are now
