Overview

  1. Linux desktop + 2 Linux servers
  2. 3 Mac laptops

Linux systems

Bacula for the servers

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

Bellman

Bellman has a 2TB drive (/green, /dev/sdb3). Bellman has its OS on a SSD (/, /dev/sda1).

Dart

Dart has a RAID mirror SSD and a giant RAID on a controller.

Laysan

Laysan has one SSD for the OS and one data drive.

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.

Mondo is a 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.

Macs: Plover, Stellar, Swift

Timemachine
