Hello, I'm new to linux and looking for an overall backup tool for a Linux 
server. 

My first question is: can backuppc make a backup of a system it is running on 
itself? Or do I always need to have a second backup host to make a backup of my 
Linux server? 

And my second question is: could I get a corrupt system backup if the web 
applications and databases were not shut down during the backup process? 

Thanks.
