I will definitely look at it but the problem is that I doing the restore
over a wan i.e. very low bandwidth.

Another perhaps easier method could be to use nc, as known as, netcat to do
such a job. It's in the netutils package. But it needs a working network
connection. And perhaps the dd program, It' in the fileutils package.
(There is also a netcat for NT)

From the nc info:

"Netcat can be used as a simple data transfer agent, and it doesn't really
matter which end is the listener and which end is the client -- input at one
side arrives at the other side as output.  It is helpful to start the
listener
at the receiving side with no timeout specified, and then give the sending
side
a small timeout.  That way the listener stays listening until you contact
it,
and after data stops flowing the client will time out, shut down, and take
the
listener with it.  Unless the intervening network is fraught with problems,
this should be completely reliable, and you can always increase the timeout.
A
typical example of something "rsh" is often used for: on one side,

 nc -l -p 1234 | uncompress -c | tar xvfp -

and then on the other side

 tar cfp - /some/dir | compress -c | nc -w 3 othermachine 1234

will transfer the contents of a directory from one machine to another,
without
having to worry about .rhosts files, user accounts, or inetd configurations
at either end.  Again, it matters not which is the listener or receiver; the
"tarring" machine could just as easily be running the listener instead.  One
could conceivably use a scheme like this for backups, by having cron-jobs
fire
up listeners and backup handlers [which can be restricted to specific
addresses
and ports between each other] and pipe "dump" or "tar" on one machine to "dd
of=/dev/tapedrive" on another as usual.  Since netcat returns a nonzero exit
status for a denied listener connection, scripts to handle such tasks could
easily log and reject connect attempts from third parties, and then retry.

The CD creation process currently separates the "building of the iso
filesystem" from the "burning of the cd".  This is because the
building of the iso usually impacts the burn, and the burn can fail due to
the pipeline becoming empty, or because of cpu/disk load gets too high.

So, you need to perform your backup to cd in two phases.  The creation of
the iso filesystem from the current disk (creating an image), and then
burn the image to CD.  You can burn the image to CD with any OS, including
windows.  The task is to create the image.

Ideally, you want the image created from a quiet filesystem, not one that
is the root of a running multi-user mode UNIX.  I have accomplished this
by running in single user mode, but this failed for some reason on some
recent RH releases, so I now mount the filesystem to be backed up on the
/mnt of a running OS.  And I use Trinux as the running OS, on which to
mount my filesystem.

With the hard disk mounted on /mnt, the challange now becomes where to put
the data that gets dumped into the image file.  Ideally, this should be on
a filesystem other than the filesystem that is being backed up.  Although
with some effort, you might be able to create your image and skip the
image file itself.  See below.

In my previous description, this problem was solved by physically mounting
the new disk onto the controller.  Mount them both, and copy from one to
the other.  But in this scenario, we do not have a new disk to use,
because we are building an ISO that we can later burn to a CD.

Some options you may have available include:

1) attach a spare hard disk, and build your iso on it.
2) use an nfs mounted filesystem, but could be really slow.
3) use a modified buildiso command (find |grep -v isofilename.iso |
mkisofs) that strips out the iso filename.

Which choice may depend on your resources and the speed with which you
need to accomplish the task...

If the machine is an internet server, then you want this to happen fast,
so I would suggest option 1 (or 3).  A permanently mounted extra
filesystem would be ideal.  You may need to go single user, while the
backup happens, but this could be for as little as a minute or two.  Or up
to 30 YMMV.

If it is an internal office server that is totally quiet and unused at
times of the day, then you could easily use option 2, as often as you
like.

Of Course....  Once you have a copy of your root filesystem imaged onto
the CD, then it is a simple task to boot from Trinux, mount the hard disk,
and mount the cd and do a find . -print | cpio -pmduv /mnt/harddisk..
Sometimes you need a quick lilo to make it boot.

This is an excellent mechanism for preserving the state of a known good
running machine.  It can be done on a regular basis, and efficiently
stored off site.  It might also be accomplished nightly.  I highly
recommend it.

FINAL HINT -- I haven't ever done what is described, so I don't have the
exact commands, but it should work.  Also, you might also consider burning
an image to the CD that is NOT ISO, but a more Unix friendly FS.  This may
help preserve ownership and perms issues, if you encounter any.  ISO, as a
standard, does not preserve UNIX perms. (correct me if I am wrong, please)

Re: [Trinux-talk] Q - Timothy Burt - Backup or clone hard drive

[Timothy B. <tb...@ar...>]

Good idea.

tar used to be terrible about maintaining permissions, perhaps it has been 
fixed.  I use cpio because it has always done it right.

nc -l -p 1234 | uncompress -c | cpio -i
and
find . -print | cpio -o | compress -c | nc -w 3 othermachine 1234

also, with sub 500 MHZ machines, it runs faster without the compression.

ALSO, you cannot use this method to snapshot the root, while it is
running.  It might work, but it is not reliable.

Re: [Trinux-talk] Backup or clone hard drive

[Matthew F. <mf...@ci...>]

There aren't any tools for splitting up/compressing raw paritions hard
drive into an ISO, but typically the way it would be used would be to dd
the device/partition across the network using either netcat or a remote
fileystem (NFS/SMB).

Not sure if that helps?

[Matthew F. <mf...@ci...>]

I used ISOLINUX which boots directly off of ISO and doesn't require floppy

[Trinux-talk] trinux boot cd ISO

[Ben S. <bas...@ya...>]

Can you tell me how or what software you used to make
the trinux boot cd iso. I wanted to add some files to
the iso and I was curious how you created a bootable
image larger than a standard floppy disk.

Thanks
