Re: [PLUG] Backup & restore music parodies

[Fred Stluka <fred@bristle.com>]

JP,

Those may be the 2 funniest videos I've ever seen!  In a "sad,
but true" kind of way.

Been there.  Done that.  A couple months into my first job out of
college, I lost everything I'd done for the past 2 weeks.  Disk
crash on a VAX.  Yes, the ops guys had been doing backups, but
no, they were not able to do a restore.  Doh!!!

I've spent the last 36 years making sure it never happens to me
again.  My latest solution is:
- http://bristle.com/Tips/Unix.htm#rsync_full_and_incremental_backup

I've now updated an existing with links to these 2 videos:
- http://bristle.com/Tips/Unix.htm#rsync_easy_recovery_from_rsync_backup

Just what I needed to brighten my day.  Thanks!
--Fred
