[SAC] Deciphering the Backup Status

So based on Bacula setting here's what's currently configured.
Backup files are stored on Backup.osgeo under /backup/bacula and are
retrievable via Bacula. There's currently 109GB of backed up files.

This consists of the following directories:
    File = /boot
    File = /etc
    File = /var/www
    File = /osgeo
    File = /var/lib/mysql
    File = /var/lib/postgresql
    File = /var/lib/dpkg
    File = /var/lib/aptitude/pkgstates

From each of the following machines:

wiki,secure,web,trac,webextra,backup,qgis,projects,adhoc

A Full copy is made every Sat. with incremental backups nightly.

Combined with the Rsync clone of Download we are at
/dev/vdb1 500G 197G 304G 40% /backup
disk usage.

So the next logical step is to get scripts written that dump important
databases to the file system. We can either put them into /osgeo folders
on each server to have them picked up by the current system or put them
at a different path and configure a different job specific to picking up
people db dumps. Technically mysql and postgres appear to be picked up
but that's not in a format that's transportable to other servers.

Note these scripts can be set to run from Bacula, here's an example from
tracsvn:
Client Run Before Job = /osgeo/backup.sh
Client Run After Job = "rm /osgeo/trac_backup.zip"

Hopefully that gives everyone enough info to think about the next steps.

Thanks,
Alex

I am using the following link to see the download statistics for download.osgeo.org: http://download.osgeo.org/cgi-bin/awstats.pl? and it appears that it has not been updated since Sept 2010. Do I have the correct link for download stats, or is there a problem with the awstats cron job on that machine?

There seems to be a related open ticket on this: http://trac.osgeo.org/osgeo/ticket/634

I would be able to check but have no longer a login on that machine.

Markus,

Access to download.osgeo.org should be based on the "telescience" ldap
group which you are in. I have logged in and giving you sudo access as
well.

Best regards,
