config ไว้เยอะหรอครับ ลำพัง OS+MySQL server ไม่น่าจะติดตั้งและ config นานนะครับ ยิ่งตอนนี้มี tool ของอาจารย์ คือตัว Xtrabackup แทบจะไม่ต้อง config อะไรมากมายเลยนะเนี๊ย
The best tool to use for this is probably dump, which is a standard linux tool and will give you the whole filesystem. I would do something like this:
*********************************
/sbin/dump -0uan -f - / | gzip -2 | ssh -c blowfish user@backupserver.example.com dd of=/backup/server-full-backup-`date '+%d-%B-%Y'`.dump.gz
**********************************
This will do a file system dump of / (make sure you don't need to dump any other mounts!), compress it with gzip and ssh it to a remote server (backupserver.example.com), storing it in /backup/. If you later need to browse the backup you use restore:
********************************
restore -i
*******************************
Another option, if you don't have access to dump is to use tar and do something like
tar -zcvpf /backup/full-backup-`date '+%d-%B-%Y'`.tar.gz --directory / --exclude=mnt --exclude=proc --exclude=tmp .
