Hi,
I am still without a solution for disc mirroring....
Let me explain the setup once again.
I have 2 identical PCs (same Motherboard, RAM, Processor). -- using FC9 1st one is a Primary server which is ON all the site. 2nd one is a Backup server which is only switched on when BACKUP is being taken. Rest of the time its switched off.
I need to create an identical copy of the HDD of Primary PC on Sec PC.
I tried Disc Image software -- "g4l". When I restore the image on the Sec PC's HDD, there is a MAC address. Is there any way to solve this problem ?
Apart from RSync, is there any way to mirror DISC of 1st PC on the 2nd PC? And in such a scenario, how to address MAC address conflict issue ?
You can try mirrordir. It should be in repos or else you can google it. mirrordir makes an identical copy of whatever directory you want [ In your case / ]

Ideally, I would like a solution with least human interaction when PRI crashes and Backup PC has to be used.
Pls help me! Thx -- http://mm.glug-bom.org/mailman/listinfo/linuxers
