Okay, I admit up front this is going to be a strange one...
Is there a way to set up two separate backups on the same host that run
_exclusively_ of each other?
My desktop machine is dual boot, with FreeBSD and Devuan linux. It
spends most of it's time in FreeBSD, and that is being backed up,
however I would also like the linux install to be backed up, but
separately from FBSD.
So what I am wondering is if there is a way that I can either have a
file, or checking uname -r or something similar, and run two separate
backups, based on the OS which is running?
The first part seems pretty straightforward: simply give the host two
different names and manage the backups separately.
Then the part to contend with is updating the "ping" script to return
positively only when the expected OS for the respective host names is
running._______________________________________________
