I need to back up a server [[Bellman]] and a desktop [[Laysan]] and possibly a couple laptops (but those will probably just use TimeMachine since they are Macs.
# Windows Desktop
# Linux server
# NAS
# 3 Mac laptops
# Chromebook


For years I used a perl script. Tired of that.
The user interface will be on Laysan.
The storage will be on Bellman.
Bellman has a RAID mirror with two 2TB drives.
Bellman has its OS on a SSD. So I want to back up the SSD to the RAID.
Laysan has one SSD for the OS and one data drive.
== Bacula ==
Bellman: sudo apt-get install bacula-sd-mysql bacula-server bacula-common-mysql
Laysan: sudo apt-get install bacula-console-qt bacula-client bacula-common bacula-traymonitor
== Mondo ==
Simple fast way to create a bootable DVD on Laysan.
Add the repo, add the packages
echo > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/mondorescue.sources.list \
"deb ftp://ftp.mondorescue.org/debian 7 contrib"
apt-get update
apt-get install mondo
Run mondoarchive as root.
When prompted for what to ignore, enter /var/swapfile1|/home
This will create a bootable DVD that can restore the SSD.
I have a partition with Windows 8.1 in it... I should probably think about backing it up sometime but right now I just don't care because I have not used it for anything.
