Re: [Xen-users] Using dd and gzip to backup LVM backed domUs

I'm trying to come up with the best way to backup my xen domUs.  I
have a logical volume containing an ext3 root filesystem for each
domU.  Basically, I want to back up the whole filesystem in such a way
that I could restore the image on another xen server in the case of
hardware failure.   My idea so far is to back up the logical volume
with a command of this form (from the dom0):

Unless you have Windows domains, the easiest approach would be to simply copy the files.

cp, tar, rsync - pick the one you like.

If you want a good backup system, try BackupPC - http://backuppc.sf.net
