Hrmmmm, thanks for the input there herbet, im currently reviewing some documentation if anyone cares there located at:

http://surf.ap.seikei.ac.jp/~nakano/dump-restore/dump-restore-mini-HOWTO.en.html#s3
http://dump.sf.net

not sure if i want to go that route but it does seem to be the only way. (just got some reading to do) I was woundering if anyone else out there uses the

'vserver name-of-server build'

command and how they handle it. Ive been reading somewhere on the linux-vserver site that people add a apt-get or something to the end of the command.If someone could explain me on the aproach that they use and sharing any knowldge would be great. (what packages you use and the commands) to build a vserver identical to the main server. I need all the packages and software to be ready to work as not so much for things like user data.

Thanks Again Everyone
Gilbert

I would like to move or somehow make an image of my main server and put it in a vserver. Is this possible, cause ive been using the 'cp' (copy command) and can
get pretty far actully but woundering if an imaging methods possible...



dump/restore the required partitions to a skeletal server, adapt the runlevel/init scripts and make sure that no additional devices have been copied.

this should be sufficient.
