Mirror Server

[Thomas Dwyer]

Hello;

I would like to setup a backup server to replace the main server should a disaster occur.  I have experimented abit with rsync and it looks like it would do the job.

My question is;  what files or binaries should not, or cannot be replicated? Obviously the kernel should be separate.

I want to be able to take the backup, plug it in where the primary was, change the IP and everything would be as it was up until the point of the last rsync.

Thanks
Tom
