Re: Backup and restore on Linux
Have a look here, you'll find several commands that will suit your needs, even if they are not exactly as easy and elegant as the *backup from HP UX :

Re: Backup and restore on Linux
You can boot off of a floppy and backup/restore to tape.
You can restore one file or boot off the floppy and restore the entire OS. If you have dual boot it will even restore the ntfs partion.
You have to be running Linux to restore the ntfs partion then boot into MS.

Solutionmondo is the equivalent of HP-UX Ignite.
I hope on your HP-UX boxes you make_tape_recovery once in a while, because fbackup is not enough to recover a system with a boot or lif problem.

Re: Backup and restore on Linux
------------------------
Using tar
- used for creating archive files
- option:
c create archive
x extract file from archive
t view content of archive
j compress archive with bzip2
z compress archive with gzip
- example
make archive + gzip compression:
# tar cvzf /var/tmp/boot.tgz /boot
uncompress archive
# tar tf /var/tmp/boot.tar
extract files into a temp location:
# mkdir /tmp/untarred; cd /tmp/untarred
# tar xvf /var/tmp/boot.tar
# ls /tmp/untarred/boot
Using dump/restore
- backup/restore ext2/3 filesystem
- support full and incremental backups
eg.
# dump -u -f
# restore -rf

Re: Backup and restore on Linux
I do also use mondo/mindi to CD-RW once in a while for archive.
Also use interactively gnutar very often... I find this more general purpose
But realy it all depend on the ganularity you need for your enviroment.
