Thank you but I should have included my reason for the drive copy. The server is a production server and has web sites, email, monitoring software, SpamAssassin and a host of other software. I am having some hard drive errors reported in my logs so I thought the easiest way to move all the files and the installed software was a drive copy to a new drive. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Jay Berryman" <jay.berryman@xxxxxxxxx> To: "General Red Hat Linux discussion list" <redhat-list@xxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Monday, February 07, 2005 9:36 AM Subject: RE: How to drive copy Linux > If the servers are identical, use kickstart to do your install. > > Jay Berryman > Systems Engineer, RHCT, RHCE > SITEL World Wide > jay.berryman@xxxxxxxxx > Work: (402)-963-6347 > Cell: (402)-598-1737 > > > This message and any attachments are intended only for the use of the > addressee and may contain information that is privileged and confidential. > If the reader of the message is not the intended recipient, or the > authorized agent of the intended recipient, you are hereby notified that any > dissemination of this communication is strictly prohibited.
