[BackupPC-users] BackupPC to NFS then to tape via DPM
2011-10-12 16:09:59
I've recently been given the task of setting up BackupPC to back up some of our
servers running RHEL and PgSQL.
Management wants me to back up data to an NFS where it can then be saved to
tape via DPM for offsite storage.
I have set up a pair of test machines, the BackupPC server is on a RHEL 6 box
and the target I am backing up is a little CentOS 5 desktop.
BackupPC is successfully backing up the CentOS machine to it's /data/BackupPC
TopDir.
I've used rsync with ssh2 to perform 2 small backups.
How do I get it to save the backup to the NFS storage out on the network
instead?
I will not have console access to the RHEL server that will be the eventual
real backup target, I will have to tell their admin what to do to get it set up
on that end
Also if there's a simpler way of doing all this (using our existing
infrastructure) I'd like to hear about it.
Just a little background so you will understand the nature of my question, I'm
a DBA and have been spending all my time in happy database land and this is a
new area for me not only in terms of running Red Hat but also I'm not adeptly
skilled in Linux and this is my first attempt with BackupPC.
That I have gotten this far on my own is just a little amazing to me.
Thanks.
