excluding directories for amanda bare metal restores
2007-11-22 05:18:19
I'm aiming to use Amanda for bare metal restores as described in
"Backup & Recovery" by Curtis Preston - p. 145. However, I'm not
sure which directories to exclude. In fact, I'm not sure that I should
exclude anything at all. Should I exclude these?
/proc
/mnt
/dev
/tmp
/sys
Curtis says to follow these steps for bare-metal restores using Amanda:
1. Replace the disk.
2. Boot with LiveCD (knoppix)
3. Format and partition the disk
4. Use amrestore on the Amanda server to restore everything to
a new disk, including the operating system (you might need to restore
incrementals as well).
5. Create a boot loader on the new disk.
