I’ve additionally had many crashes of varied varieties through the years, together with a big portion of self-inflicted ones. Past expertise with knowledge loss has made me very conscious of the necessity for good backups.
I again up many elements of my Linux hosts however my /dwelling listing is particularly essential. Losing any of the information in /dwelling on my major workstation as a result of a crash or an improve may very well be disastrous.
My backup technique for /dwelling is to again up all the pieces daily. There are different issues on each Linux system to again up however /dwelling is the middle of all the pieces I do on my workstation. I maintain my paperwork and monetary information there in addition to off-line emails, handle books for various apps, calendar and job knowledge, and most importantly for me as of late, the working copies of my subsequent two Linux books.
