I just thought I would ask for opinions on backups that people use. I have thought about the old fashioned dump/restore; IDK if that would be good for modern use or not. My system isn't really that big. My allotted size is 30 Gig, and it's not full. There's dar and xar and fsarchiver. There's backing up with btrfs too.

    I am thinking about back ups of the whole system and rpms I have installed. And maybe not backing up logs, old settings like are stored in the root directory of the user(s) and root account.

    Does anyone use any of these or other backups? I just want to save my rpms and not have to download all from scratch. IDK if dar or dump would backup things like /sys or other system directories. I have created dump backups but not really restored from scratch.

Bill
