I have been trying to put into effect a backup solution for our virtual environments. I currently just backup the /home directory and other configuration files like httpd.conf etc. I have a two step process
1) cycle through the private folder and for each venode backup the files
2) once all of these are done Copy files to a mounted windows drive.
The reason for this is i cannot find a veritas linux agent that works, so i copy the files to a file share on my windows network to be backuped up by veritas.
i am finding a major problem though when copying the files to the windows share, for some reason I get a kernel crash when copying the files. Though i cannot find any thing in my logs to ascertain why this would happen.
Does anyone know if this is a known problem? or how i turn on jkernel logging? I am guessing in the /etc/syslog.conf file i add something like
kern.* /var/log/kern_messages
Is there any other logging i should be looking into regarding the openvz or that you can think would help? I think once logging is turned on I can replicate this issue pretty much everytime.
Regards
Shaun
