I looked into that but LVM/EVMS snapshots store only the difference. What I need is complete other copy so if the original paritions dies completely, I still have everything (at least up to the last mirror job). But you got me thinking about dump/restore. Does dump/restore do things at the block level? If I have two equal partitions and I make my initial image doing a dump on the first and piping it into a restore one the second. Then at later intervals do an incremental dump on the first piping it again into a restore on the second, will it just do the most efficient thing (i.e. handle renames as only a change to the directories involved)? I am not too familiar with dump so don't know if incremental dumps are possible in such a scheme. _______________________________________________ Ext3-users@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/ext3-users
