Ah, that makes sense. I am using a similar minimal backup for some of my remote Web servers (I am also backing up web sites, home directories etc.). One additional thing I am backing up: I run "rpm -qa" into a file (as a Client Run Before Job) and back up that file. That way, I know which packages I need during disaster recovery. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Download Intel® Parallel Studio Eval Try the new software tools for yourself.
