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 ?
What are you trying to say or do? A disk mirror is an EXACT replica of the disk. Just as intended.
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 ?
Ideally, I would like a solution with least human interaction when PRI crashes and Backup PC has to be used.
You want High availabilty. Not disc mirroring backup. Innumerable solutions. Search google for HA.
Pls help me! Thx
