Hi!
It is possible to make partition image on the fly? With the system (*Linux server) running? I think in the aproach: At midnigth (less system use), the script remounts partition readonly by some minutes while put the output of 'dd if=/dev/...' to a file in another HD on the same machine. Some word? Some trouble in do so? * The server is running several services like internet, mail, web, jabber, mysql. I want to make a diary backup of it. Hardware resources are not problem, I can use another machine, or DVD writer or another HD or the three options together. If it is not possible, what do you think about mount the system from another system in the LAN via NFS, and use simple 'cp -R /mnt/nfs-server/ /backup/'? Obviously excluding dirs like /proc, /mnt, etc. PS: I already search google, tldp, etc and didnt find nothing with this specifity level. Thank you Tom
