Dear brien, Thanks a lots for your answer. Would you explain me more on how to use archive host w/ parity?
I wish to have a script so when i connect external disk /dev/sdb then it makes the auto mount, copy all the data from /dev/sda to /dev/sdb, after finished copying the data then unmount external hard disk automatically. Do you know this kind of code/software existed? --- sokvantha brien dieterle wrote: > I think you want -H to the rsync command. Or just dd if=/dev/sda > of=/dev/sdb.
