You might want to have a look, but something like bacula is another common solution. Because gluster volumes can be quite large, you might want to have multiple independent rsnapshot runs working concurrently. I wrote a puppet module to manage and setup the separate rsnapshot instances which is not a native rsnapshot feature. Have a look if you like: https://github.com/purpleidea/puppet-rsnapshot > Cluster (gluster) configurations can be backed up by either exporting > gluster volume info or backing up the vol files (/var/lib/glusterfs/... or > something like that). Exactly... Or by using something like puppet-gluster to define your configuration, and then backing up your puppet code. [plug] https://github.com/purpleidea/puppet-gluster Hope this helps, James
