System backup restore replication

System backup restore replication


After Ive spent quite a while configuring and tweaking the system it is a natural thought to save its state so that if anything goes wrong I could restore it back.
My requirements were:
  1. free and simple solution
  2. fast backup/restore
I was using acronis true image for my windows system, but on linux theres a free and great tool that can do the job - fsarchiver. It is not installed by default so you have to install it via synaptic/apt-get
It really is simple and great, can backup separate folders and the whole fs.. To backup the whole system I run it from the bootable media.
  1. Preparation. Get rescue disk from here. Burn it or create a bootable usb drive.
  2. Boot from the media. Mount the drive that will hold the backup image.
  3. Backup: $ fsarchiver savefs -j 2 -v ~/flash.fsa /dev/sdd1
  4. Restore: $ fsarchiver restfs /data/flash.fsa id=0,dest=/dev/sdd1
-j option enables the usage of 2 CPUs, -v is for more information during the execution.

System centre 2012 SP1

System centre 2012 SP1 With the official naming of Windows Server �8� as Windows Server 2012 and the launch of System Center 2012 at MMS a few weeks back, Microsoft has now delivered a solution to our customers for building their private clouds and to hosters for building their own Infrastructure-as-a-Service public cloud offerings. It is instructive to recap the meaning of moving to the cloud model and the core tenets of a cloud as was laid out in the keynote by Brad Anderson at MMS, and then take a look at how this is done with Windows Server 2012 and System Center 2012 SP1. The Cloud Model First off, it is important to note that cloud computing does not necessarily mean that the workload is running outside a customer�s premises. The workloads could be deployed on infrastructure that is on a customer�s premises, or on their partners� premises but completely controlled and managed by the customer. That is a �private� cloud. Workloads could also be deployed and run on a hoster�s premi...
