rsync backup of a working linux host
I want to have a backup of a linux system which currently works ok (better to prevent than to cure :-))
my idea is to have a image of the working system somewhere and in case the hdd fails - restore it on another hdd
right now I am playing with rsync, but is this the tool I need, or something like dd ? the goal is to have a image of the working system which can be restored on another hdd at anytime.
thanks,
petre
