CentOS 6.3 - Best backup / restore solution?
(lemmy.world)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Any reason you can’t just do your normal backups? Should be easy enough to do an rsync if you don’t have a backup solution
I just barely joined the organization, so I'm not entirely sure what's in our environment/infrastructure. First task given to me is to find a full image back up solution. My assumption is that we wants to move off of CentOS for obvious reasons and move onto a new Linux distro. I haven't spoken with my manager just yet to get a better idea as to what the end game is. Hopefully today I'll get the full scope. I can't imagine we'd want to continue using CentOS.
