Imagine you have to backup some windows/linux servers to a dedicated
dirvish server, you will use an rsyncd daemon on each server, BUT you
only need to backup some directories per server, ejem:
* On windows-server-1 c:\shared_documents and c:\account_software
* On linux-server-1 \etc and \home
So you need one vault per backed directory, as the number of backed
directories grows the vault number grows and you finish with many vaults
per server and getting crazy configuring and managing them.
The ideal solution (for me) will be on vault per server, (or one vault for
all servers) but dirvish doesnt support them (the exclude nightmare isnt
a good solution), and I think rsync cant backup multiple remote directories
on one command over the rsync protocol.
So my solution is having a separate rsync script that will do the remote
backup and then let dirvish create the data snapshots once the rsync
script finished.
This is a rsync script (stripped down version) I use for this purpose:
config.cfg:
RSYNC_PASSWORD="rsyncpassword"
RSYNCD_SERVER_IP="192.168.0.3"
USER="rsyncuser"
MOD="server"
#backupX=(local_dir remote_dir)
backup1=(/home/backup/winserver1 shared_documents)
backup2=(/home/backup/winserver1 account_software)
backup3=(/home/backup/linuxserver1 etc)
backup4=(/home/backup/linuxserver1 home)
on rsyncscript.sh:
RSYNC="rsync -az -O -v --timeout=600 --stats --delete --chmod=ugo=rwx "
for name in backup1 backup2 .....; do
eval $RSYNC [EMAIL PROTECTED]::$MODULO/${$name[0]} ${$name[1]}
done;
So I can have one vault per server (/home/backup/winserver1) or even one
big vault for all servers (/home/backup).
Regards.
