Hi
We are running a few Hardy servers. All the servers are backed up using Backuppc on a nightly basis.
I was wondering if there is a way to generate a DVD that will allow me to export a working image of a server. To clarify, lets say that if one of our server crashes, then using the CD I can immediately bootup (kinda like a live CD or perhaps a quick install) the exact same server on another machine.
I am not sure even if I am on the right track or not, but basically we want a setup that will allow us fast recovery from crashes, especially hardware failures. We just put in this DVD in another spare machine and the server is back up.
