Re: [Clonezilla-live] Create an image of the disk without rebooting the server

[Steven S. <st...@nc...>]

Hi,
Clonezilla is an image tool, which means it _images_ the used blocks of 
  file system in a partition, not to mount the file system and save each 
files. Therefore, the answer is no.
Although maybe it's possible you can try to force to save the mounted 
partition, the saved image might be corrupted.

In the future, we might add file-based backup and restore... Who knows...
