How do I backup my stuff?
Snapshots and Hardlinks
Snapshots
A snapshot of
/home/simonh
shows what my home-dir looked like yesterday (or last week, or last month. . . )
Makes "undelete" (file recovery) trivially-easy.
Hardlinks
Snapshots implemented by
hard links
(contrast soft/sym links).
cp -l
Variant on previous script:
rsync -a --hard-links --delete --backup \ --backup-dir=$SNAPSDIR $SRCACCNT $RSYNCDIR/
...previous
up (conts)
next...
