One of my clients needs a backup of his svn repository. I see that this is possible using svadmin dump command. I see where the location of the source repository is, but I don't see anything in documentation as to where the actual dump file is located. I need to know where the dump file is so I can scp or rsync the file to another server for backup.
View 5 RepliesI'm working on setting up a new subversion server and getting an error I'm not having much luck resolving.
I'm attempting to create the repository in /home/svn/foo with the command svnadmin create /home/svn/foo while in /home/svn.
I am greeted with the error: svnadmin: SQLite compiled for 3.6.20, but running with 3.6.17
I installed subversion via yum install subversion
I've installed SQLite 3.6.22 from source and removed/installed subversion with no change.
What gives? I wasn't really wanting to install subversion from source. Seems a bit excessive.
Environment stuff:
[root@COS svn]# yum repolist

I have used Dump Command to dump the application files. For Full backup the level 0 is working fine. For incremental backup I used the level 1 or 2 it is getting the error as
DUMP: Only level 0 dumps are allowed on a subdirectory
DUMP: The ENTIRE dump is aborted.

I have my webserver with cpanel , and I have a FTP location. I wanna backup to the FTP location directly, because I dont have enough space on the server to back up first then rsync over the data, I have this script I need a little help in getting it to backup directly to the ftp location , or is there a simpler way .
Code:
#!/bin/sh
# System + MySQL backup script
# Full backup day - Sun (rest of the day do incremental backup)

After I spent some time discovering The BIG BANG of Universe and The Meaning of Life :
I managed somehow to create a script to make some backup of files on server and TAR it and then FTP the archive to another location FTP server and then emails result.
It also measures time needed to complete it and deletes archive older than XX days (set in find -mtime +20) and makes incremental backup every weekday and FULL on Sundays (which suits me bcoz no heavy load).
Files for TAR to include and exclude are in txt files listed each line separate name:

I would like to have dump backup just my home directory but am having problems the command I am using wants to back every thing and takes hours upon hours it has been running for about 10 hr and only 21% is done. This is the command dump -0u -f dp_hd /media/CENTON USB/ /how can I get this to back up only my home directory
View 7 Replies View RelatedUsing tar is it possible to backup different types of file system e.g.ext3, ufs, or any other file system. I know using dump it is not possible because it is reading through raw device. Then what about tar? Where I get more info about this? Means suppose I want to backup files from different file systems using tar then is it possible?
View 1 Replies View RelatedDoes the dump command back up entire file-systems or is it capable of backing up subsets of a file-system? And is tar capable of taking device names (for file systems) as input to be archived?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a repository which i setup using reprepro. I have some packages on there but it seems that the Ubuntu repositories have a more recent version of those packages. What I want to do is when someone does an apt-get install package-name, it downloads the packages from my repository (in respect of any updated versions in other ubuntu repositories). I would like to achieve this with zero configuration on the client. Ideally what I would want is to be able to just point the sources.list to my repository for all packages, and if the package does not exist in my repository, it then goes to look in the ubuntu repos.

here's the script :
Code:
#!/bin/bash
FILENAME=mysql_full_dump_`date '+%m.%d.%y'`.sql
`which mysqldump` --all-databases -uroot -p************ -h127.0.0.1 > /root/$FILENAME

the script resides in /root/bin and the cron entry is as follows:
Code:
0 0 * * * root "/root/bin/mysql_daily.sh"
the result is the .sql file, but it doesn't archive it.
I am using Cron for nightly backups to a usb device. I was just wondering in my script for the backup, how do I find the location of my usb device.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI want to generate core dump files from my program when it crashes. Its a pretty big process and has about 10-11 threads in it.I have followed the documentation to enable core dump by setting ulimit to unlimited etc. I quickly tried "A demo program creating a core dump" from the following webpage, which succeeds in Segfault and dumping a core file in the directory that I configured.However, I tried running my original program and caused it to crash. I did this by making calls to kill(), raise() or the same null pointer access as shown in the webpage above. In each case, my program crashed but did not generate a core dump file. Am I missing something?My program is in C++ and my environment is Redhat 9.0 (kernel 2.4.20)
Going through the "Why do I NOT get a core dump?" section on the same webpage as above, I can see two potential problems. One - there are issues with the suid/sgid (bullet # 6). I am not able to change any settings with suid because my system does not contain either /proc/sys/fs/suid_dumpable or /proc/sys/kernel/suid_dumpableTwo, my program has threads in it and the bullet # 8 is the problem.

I need to discover more detail error kernel panic in my linux box, some body know any way do dump in kernel Linux?
View 1 Replies View RelatedMy application team is asking me to generate the kernel-dump.
Here are details about my server.
OS: RHEL 4.7/32 Bit
Kernel Version: 2.6.9-89.0.23.ELsmp
Processor: Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5520@ 2.27GHz
Hardware: HP Proliant 380G6 series server.
I am using Electric Cloud applications. Sometimes it creates some kernel panic and immediately got rebooted. Kernel-debuginfo rpm is not installed. In some thread, I read the kernel-debuginfo rpm's version should match with the kernel version. In my case I couldn't even find the exact version of kernel-debuginfo version.
I'm quite new to linux, but I've managed to grasp some basics. Now my intention here to create a virtual directory, which I resorted to creating an Image File so that I can mount it and have my folder have a dedicated storage. I will mount this image as a loop device. Well it's not much of a problem, but I would like to know whether this is suitable. Say I want to create a 25GB Image.
Code:
dd if=/dev/zero of=/home/disk-img/25GB.ext3 bs=1G count=25
Is this recommended? I'm using block size as 1G which is really huge, so I was wondering, if this is actually recommended. From what I read, some said that it's only advisable to use 4096k or lower, but what I found was that these suggestions are very dated (year 2003), and it is now 2010, so I would like to know if it makes any big differences.
I am using RHEL 4.7 (32bit) on HP Proliant 380G6 series server. We are using Electric Cloud Agents on these servers. Nowadays we are facing some memory issues and its creates some kernel panic and then restarts the server. When i reported the issue to my application team, they asked me to come with the core dump. I googled it enough, then i set ulimit value as unlimited. (previously it was 0, then i made a entry in /etc/profile file as follows
ulimit -c unlimited) But still whenever my server restarts due to that kernel panic, it couldnt generate the core dump. My application was installed on /opt
The attached document has the kernel panic logs
Using CentOS 5.5. I have a handful of users that I need to have connect to my server via sftp and start in the same directory. for example, user1, user2, user3, etc.. will connect via sftp and upon connection will all be in the /some/dir/path/ftp-root directory.I know one way is to create these users all with the same 'home' directory, since by default a user starts in their home directory when connecting via sftp, but before just doing that, I wanted to find out if that is really the appropriate method to use? alternatives? Is there some setting on the sftp server end that could direct all users to one starting directory so that these users don't have to have the same 'home' dir? I'm using the sshd daemon that comes with CentOS 5.5 (with all current updates/patches)

View 4 Replies View RelatedDoes anyone know of any decent enterprise level backup solutions for Linux? I need to backup a few servers and a bunch of desktops onto one backup server. Using rsync/tar.gz won't cut it. I need like bi-monthly full HDD backups, and things such as that, with a nice GUI interface to add/remove systems from the backup list. I need basically something similar to CommVault or Veritas. Veritas I've used before but it has its issues, such as leaving 30GB cache files. CommVault, I have no idea how much it is, and if it supports backing up to a hard drive rather than tape.
