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
