[cobalt-users] RAQ3 Daily & Full Backup/Recovery Process

["Gary S. Ownsby" <gary@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hello All.

Being new to the operation and maintenance on a remotely-hosted RAQ3, I am
very interested in obtaining the group's comments and recommendations as to
a complete server backup/recovery process...essentially, a highly reliable
way to recover quickly if the RAQ dies.  The server is equipped with Legato
Backup software as well as Arkemia; however, the Arkemia seems to require a
tape drive to be attached which I cannot do as the server is remotely
hosted.

Reloading 150+ websites and user accounts would not be a "picnic" to do.  I
am hopeful a simple way (perhaps Legato) will permit a full "clone" type
dump on a scheduled basis to another backup "storage" server.  What are your
recommendations and experience?

Thank you.

Gary
