[users@httpd] backup & restore apache & mysql

[Richard Peacock <ri...@minorplanet.com>]

Hello

 

After luckily recovering from a recent server failure, I noticed I do
not have a backup of Apache and the MYSQL databases it hosts.

What would be the best way to perform a full Apache backup and MySQL (I
know it's not exactly related and understand if you can't make any
suggestions for this)?

 

My Apache is running on Suse 11.0 by the way.

Many thanks for any suggestions you may have.

 

Kind regards

 

Richard

/usr/local/bin/rsync -aCHh --stats --delete-after --delete-excluded \
     --exclude="/backup/" --exclude-from=/var/.rexcludes \
     --link-dest="${BAKLOC}.day.1" / ${BAKLOC}.day.0

Backups my entire system.
