Relax and Recover Description

A highly modular disaster recovery framework for GNU/Linux based systems. Relax and Recover (abbreviated rear) is a highly modular disaster recovery framework for GNU/Linux based systems. The disaster recovery information (and maybe the backups) can be stored via the network, local on hard disks or USB devices, DVD/CD-R, tape, etc. The result is also a bootable image that is capable of booting via PXE, DVD/CD and tape (OBDR).The aim is to make rear as least demanding as possible, it will require only the applications neccessary to fulfill the job rear is configured for. All other applications will be copied to the rescue system if they are present. Here are some key features of "Relax and Recover": · Focus on Disaster Recovery · Modular concept · For Linux and other Unix-like operations systems · No external dependancies - use only standard software supplied with the distribution · encryption (optional) - openssl ? · Linux: kernel > 2.6 supported (no kernel 2.2/2.4 support !) · User friendly - minimal output, use log file for error messages and details What's New in This Release: · updated man.8 page - _input-output-functions.sh and rear main script: added quiet mode - rear main script: initialize KEEP_BUILD_DIR to cleanup build dir under /tmp/rear.$$ - 01_mk_config_dir_recovery.sh: mode 755 became 750 - default.conf: add $VAR_DIR to COPY_AS_IS variable - 40_restore_with_nbu.sh: remove -l -y options from bprestore - 45_check_nbu_client_configured.sh: return warning instead of quitting with error - introduced VAR_DIR (/var/rear) for moving /etc/rear/recovery to /var/rear/recovery (system recovery data) - going over all *.sh scripts to modify $CONFIG_DIR/recovery into $VAR_DIR/recovery - build/default/50_patch_sshd_config.sh: build test around the sshd_config file update - moved 09_only_include_vg.sh from prep to dr phase
