Hi ! How can I transfer the current running system which booted from hda to a ramdisk and unmount all local filesystems ?
I want to setup a server, which gets its power supply from an UPS, but this ups can�t tell the machine whether commercial power is lost/restored, though a shutdown is not possible. I wrote a shellscript which checks via mii-tool if the network link is up / alive, when the link is lost, machine should stop all "public" accessible services (pop, ftp, httpd, " unmount local file systems (exept of ramdisk of course), and wait with a minimal root system in the ramdisk until the network link is up again (power is restored), or beeing cut off because of the ups is out of capacity. (which doesn�t matter, because of all filesystems on harddisks are cleanly unmounted) I have to mention that the switch/hub is not connected to the ups, of course. mhm, I do have enough ram for copying the hole machines� harddisk into a ramdisk, but I think thats the wrong way... in needs to much time to do such a copy in case of power could be lost ..... any idea would be fine ... -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
