Introduction m o C e Information can be considered more valuable than the hardware that generated it and in many h t d cases irreplaceable. n a , r It is therefore important that it is possible to recover information in case of hardware failure o h t or if files and data gets lost or corrupted for other reasons. u a It can also be the case that there is a need to recover data from some earlier point in time e h t according to an established data retention policy. f o y For these reasons it is important to perform backup on systems. l n o The primary purpose of a backup system is to copy and archive data from computers so that data s w can be recovered. e i v e h t s t c 2.

  • Easy Slackware
    1 Создание легкой системы на базе Slackware I - Введение Slackware пользуется заслуженной популярностью как классический linux дистрибутив, и поговорка "кто знает Red Hat тот знает только Red Hat, кто знает Slackware тот знает linux" несмотря на явный снобизм поклонников "бога Патре­ га" все же имеет под собой основания. Одним из преимуществ Slackware является возможность простого создания на ее основе практически любой системы, в том числе быстрой и легкой десктопной, о чем далее и пойдет речь. Есть дис­ трибутивы, клоны Slackware, созданные именно с этой целью, типа Аbsolute, но все же лучше создавать систему под себя, с максимальным учетом именно своих потребностей, и Slackware пожалуй как никакой другой дистрибутив подходит именно для этой цели. Легкость и быстрота системы определяется выбором WM (DM) , набором программ и оптимизацией программ и системы в целом. Первое исключает KDE, Gnome, даже новые версии XFCЕ, остается разве что LXDE, но набор программ в нем совершенно не устраивает. Оптимизация наиболее часто используемых про­ грамм и нескольких базовых системных пакетов осуществляется их сборкой из сорцов компилятором, оптимизированным именно под Ваш комп, причем каж­ дая программа конфигурируется исходя из Ваших потребностей к ее возможно­ стям. Оптимизация системы в целом осуществляется ее настройкой согласно спе­ цифическим требованиям к десктопу. Такой подход был выбран по банальной причине, возиться с gentoo нет ни­ какого желания, комп все таки создан для того чтобы им пользоваться, а не для компиляции программ, в тоже время у каждого есть минимальный набор из не­ большого количества наиболее часто используемых программ, на которые стоит потратить некоторое, не такое уж большое, время, чтобы довести их до ума. Кро­ ме того, такой подход позволяет иметь самые свежие версии наиболее часто ис­ пользуемых программ.

  • Instalación Y Configuración Del Servidor De Copias De Seguridad AMANDA Y Sus Clientes
    Instalación y Configuración del Servidor de Copias de Seguridad AMANDA y sus Clientes José Luis Torices Sorribas Universidad de León, España [email protected] Este documento muestra cómo instalar y configurar el servidor de copias de seguridad Amanda y los clientes tanto Linux como Windows (mediante el uso de Samba). Todo el proceso está pensado para la distribución Debian GNU/Linux siendo de fácil adaptación para las otras distribuciones existentes. Pretende ser una guía que muestre el proceso de una forma genérica, teniendo que ser adaptado el proceso para cada situación específica. Introducción El motivo por el que se ha elegido Amanda (http://www.amanda.org/) para este cometido es principalmente su versatilidad, ya que permite cubrir la necesidad de salvaguardar información importante almacenada tanto en el propio servidor como en los clientes (tanto Linux como Windows) en todos los soportes posibles: dispositivos multicinta, unidades grabadoras de CD, discos ópticos, e incluso discos duros. Además esta tarea puede ser realizada cómodamente de modo automático mediante la introducción de Amanda en el cron. Este documento está enfocado hacia la realización de las copias de seguridad utilizando el disco duro como soporte, por lo tanto se omite todo lo referente a la utilización de otro tipo de dispositivos, como pueden ser cintas o cd´s (puede encontrarse información en las referencias de la sección "Más Información" de este mismo documento). Veremos el proceso de instalación y configuración para nuestro sistema particular, pero tratando siempre de darle un enfoque lo más genérico posible. Se explicarán las secciones más importantes de los ficheros de configuración del servidor y clientes y se estudiarán mediante ejemplificaciones los reportes proporcionados por Amanda.

  • Gestión De Respaldos En Debian
    Gestión de respaldos en Debian Los ordenadores en algún momento fallan o errores humanos causan daños al sistema y los datos. Las operaciones de copia de seguridad y recuperación son una parte esencial de la administración del sistema para que el mismo se recupere después de un fallo y siga funcionando correctamente. Para ello, existen tres puntos clave a tener en cuenta para determina la política del respaldo. 1. Saber qué debemos respaldar. 2. Saber cómo respaldar y recuperar en caso de fallo. 3. Evaluación de riesgos y costos involucrados. Debemos respaldar los siguientes archivos: Archivos de datos directamente creados por el usuario: datos en "~/". Archivos de datos creados por las aplicaciones utilizadas: datos en "/var/", exceptuando "/var/cache/", "/var/run/", y "/var/tmp/". Archivos de configuración del sistema: datos en “/etc/”. Softwares locales: datos en “/usr/local/” o “/opt/”. Información de instalación del sistema: un archivo de texto sin formato con los pasos claves (particiones, etc). Demostración del conjunto de datos: confirmado por las operaciones de recuperación experimentales realizadas con antelación. Al realizar el respaldo, debemos tener en cuenta los siguientes puntos: El almacenamiento seguro de datos: protección sobre los fallos de sistema y la sobreescritura. Realizar copias de seguridad frecuentes: de forma programada. La copia de seguridad debe ser redundante: duplicación de datos (data mirroring). El proceso debe ser fácil: en lo posible que requiera solo un comando para la copia de seguridad. Debemos realizar una evaluación del proceso a utilizar: Valor de los datos en caso de pérdidas. Los recursos necesarios para la copia de seguridad: usuario, hardware y software.
