I don't know how your servers are used/managed... fwiw, I've been trying to move towards segregating configuration (/etc , crontabs,etc) from software (rpm -qa as someone suggested), from data (ie, user generated files, DBs,etc). If you think of it this way, configuration is managed via Puppet (and you only need to backup Puppet), software is managed via, say, Kickstart (and you only backup your kickstart data), and then you worry about your 'non-manageable data'. just my $0.02 :) B _________________________ {Beto|Norberto|Numard} Meijome There are no stupid questions, but there are a LOT of inquisitive idiots.
