I run on an old laptop a website (Joomla + MediaWiki + Moodle + a couple |
| 2 |
of other things). |

The site now is offline and I'm ok with my automated backups of all the |
| 5 |
hard drive, but it's going to go online in a few weeks and I'd like to add |
| 6 |
some more security. |

What I'd like to have is periodic snapshots of the site, so when the |
| 9 |
hardware will fail (I'm pretty sure it will, just a matter of time) I |
| 10 |
can easily transfer the latest snapshot on another machine running a web |
| 11 |
server and a databse. |
| 12 |
|
| 13 |
My idea is to cp (or rsync) the /var/www/host/ directory and, at the |
| 14 |
same time to mysqldump the related databases. Then I'd create an archive |
| 15 |
with this data together and transfer it via nfs on another disk. |
| 16 |
Cron will do it every twelve hours. |

Any advice or suggestions will be appreciated. |
