[server-admins] Relocation -- status and backups 2011-01-12 6pm Pacific

[Jonathan Marsden]

Troy,

Looks like we're at the end of Step (7) of my checklist, so you/we need
to be dealing with how to back up the world in case disaster happens
during the physical move.

How are you/we planning to handle that backup?  Do you need any help
with the backup portion of this relocation project?

Worst case, I can probably grab a few tens of GB over rsync overnight,
but I'll wait until I hear from you before doing that.  I *will* grab a
copy of /etc (well, all files in /etc that I can read as jmarsden) and
of the mediawiki (since I back that up nightly anyway), and of
/home/jmarsden (since it's "me").  But the rest of the machine is up to
you to back up securely off the server, somehow, unless you tell me you
need help with doing that.
