BackupPC is a high-performance, enterprise-grade system for backing up Linux, WinXX and MacOSX PCs and laptops to a server's disk. Features bleeding-edge technologies like deduplication.

rsnapshot is a filesystem snapshot utility for making backups of local and remote systems. Using rsync and hard links, it is possible to keep multiple, full backups instantly available. The disk ... [More] space required is just a little more than the space of one full backup, plus incrementals. Depending on your configuration, it is quite possible to set up in just a few minutes. Files can be restored by the users who own them, without the root user getting involved. There are no tapes to change, so once it's set up, you may never need to think about it again. rsnapshot is written entirely in Perl. It should work on any reasonably modern UNIX compatible OS, including: Debian, Redhat, Fedora, SuSE, Gentoo, Slackware, FreeBSD, OpenBSD, NetBSD, Solaris, Mac OS X, and even IRIX. [Less]

mylvmbackup is a Perl script for quickly creating backups of MySQL server's data files. To perform a backup, mylvmbackup obtains a read lock on all tables and flushes all server caches to disk, makes ... [More] an LVM snapshot of the volume containing the MySQL data directory, and unlocks the tables again. The snapshot process takes only a small amount of time. When it is done, the server can continue normal operations, while the actual file backup proceeds. [Less]

slack is an evolution from the usual "put files in some central directory" that is fairly common practice. It's descended from an earlier system its author also wrote, called "subsets", and uses a ... [More] multi-stage rsync to fix some of the problems he had there. Basically, it's a glorified wrapper around rsync. [Less]

NAMEparpush - Secure parallel transfer of files between clusters via SSH SYNOPSIS parpush [options] 'sourcefile' cluster1:path1 cluster2:path2 ... # For instance, the command: parpush ... [More] somefile 127.0.0.1..5:/tmp/somefile.@= # is equivalent to: # scp somefile 127.0.0.1:/tmp/somefile.127.0.0.1 # scp somefile 127.0.0.2:/tmp/somefile.127.0.0.2 # scp somefile 127.0.0.3:/tmp/somefile.127.0.0.3 # scp somefile 127.0.0.4:/tmp/somefile.127.0.0.4 # scp somefile 127.0.0.5:/tmp/somefile.127.0.0.5 # You need to set first a configuration file describing the # set of clusters: $ cat $HOME/.clustersrc cluster1 = machine1 machine2 machine3 cluster2 = machine2 machine4 machine5 num = 193.140.101.175 193.140.101.246 # Comments are allowed # same as range = cc100 cc101 cc102 range = cc100..102OPTIONS--configfile file File describing the clusters. If not specified parpush will look for the files: $HOME/.clustersrc $HOME/.csshrc /etc/clustersin this order --scpoptions 'options for scp' A string with the options for scp. The default is no options and -r if sourcefile is a directory --program '/usr/local/bin/scp' A string with the name of the program to use for secure copy. The default is 'scp' --name machine1=string1 --name machine2=string2 It may appear several times. The value associated used with machine1 will be used in the @# and @= macros instead the machine name. See an example. The command: $ parpush -v -n m1=o -n m2=b -n m3=e file m1+m2+m3:/tmp/file.@=is equivalent to: scp file m1/tmp/file.o scp file m2/tmp/file.b scp file m1/tmp/file.e--processes Maximum number of concurrent processes --verbose --xterm Runs cssh to the target machines --dryrun It shows the scp commands that will be issued but does not transfer the files --help --Version EXAMPLES # Copy 'sourcefile' to the union of cluster1 and cluster2 $ parpush sourcefile cluster1+cluster2:/tmp # Copy 'sourcefile' to the /tmp/ directory in machine1, machine2, machine3 # machine4 and machine 5 $ parpush sourcefile machine1..5:/tmp/ # Copy 'sourcefile' to the intersection of cluster1 and cluster2 # i.e. to 'machine2' $ parpush sourcefile cluster1*cluster2:/tmp # Copy 'sourcefile' to the machines in cluster1 that don't belong to cluster2 # i. e. to 'machine1', 'machine2' $ parpush sourcefile cluster1-cluster2:/tmp # Copies file 'sourcefile' to file 'tfmachine1.txt' in 'machine1' # and to 'tfmachine2.txt' in 'machine2'.

The file will be transferred to # 'machine2' $ parpush 'sourcefile' '(cluster1+cluster2)-num:/tmp' # Several cluster expressions may appear as targets. # Send 'sourcefile' to machines in cluster1 but not in cluster2 # and store it in /tmp. Send it to machines in cluster2 but not cluster1 # and store it at the home directory $ parpush sourcefile cluster1-cluster2:/tmp cluster2-cluster1: # Copy from remote machine 'machine1' the file 'file.txt' to # all the machines in 'cluster1' other than 'machine1': $ parpush machine1:file.txt cluster1-machine1: # You can also transfer several files from several source clusters/machines to # some set of machines. In such case # protect the source with single quotes. $ parpush 'machine1:file1.txt machine2:file2.txt' cluster1-machine1-machine2: # You can "rename" the names of the source machines. In this example # the file '.bashrc' at machine1 will be copied as 'dog_bashrc' in # all the machines in 'cluster2' (other than 'machine1'): $ parpush -n machine1=dog -n machine2=cat -n machine3=mouse -v cluster1:.bashrc \ cluster2-machine1/tmp/@#_bashrc # A combination of local and remote files can be sent. # Protect the source with single quotes. The following command # sends 'localfile.txt' in the local machine and 'remote.txt' in 'machine4' # to machine3 $ parpush 'localfile.txt machine4:remote.txt' cluster1-machine1-machine2: # Globs can be used in the sourcefile argument. # All the files matching the glob 'file*' in the local machine will be sent. # Also those in machine1 matching the glob '*.pl' $ parpush 'file* machine1:*.pl' cluster2-machine2:/tmp # All the files matching the glob 'file*' in the 'machine1' will be sent # to the local machine.

Then the installation uses the traditional procedure. The program cssh (clustercssh) is not needed but I recommend its installation. Then issue the usual commands (or use cpan): perl Makefile.PL make make test make installDESCRIPTIONparpush push files and directories across sets of remote machines. Syntax of Cluster Description FilesUnless the option --configfile is specified parpush will look for a filename named ~/.clusterrc in the home directory. If it does not exists, the looks for ~/.csshrc. Last, it looks for the file /etc/clusters. $ cat Cluster cluster1 = machine1 machine2 machine3 cluster2 = machine2 machine4 machine5 num = 193.140.101.175 193.140.101.246 range = cc10..11a4..5Ranges are allowed. Thus, the definition above range = cc10..11a4..5is equivalent to: range = cc10a4 cc10a5 cc11a4 cc11a5See man cssh to find out how to describe a cluster in the ~/.csshrc file. parpush SyntaxWhen calling parpush you have to specify the source and the targets. Each target is split in two parts: the cluster description and the path. You have to write a colon for any target, even if the target is the local host. This behavior differs from scp. in the example below 'file.txt' in machine1 will be copied to file '/tmp/file.txt.machine1' in the local machine. File 'file.txt' in machine2 will be copied to file '/tmp/file.txt.machine2' in the local machine $ parpush 'machine1..2:file.txt' :/tmp/file_txt.@#The Syntax of Cluster Expressionss + t union s * t intersection s - t difference s % t symmetric_difference Ranges are allowed. Use .. to define them. Thus cc101..102.4..5 defines the set of machines cc101.4 cc101.5 cc102.4 cc102.5Path Syntax. The @= macroInside a path the macro @= stands for the name of the current machine. Thus, the command: $ parpush file.txt machine1+machine2:/tmp/@=.txtcopies file.txt to machine1.txt in machine1 and to machine2.txt in machine2. Path Syntax. The @# macroInside a path the macro @# stands for the name of the source machine. Thus, the command: $ parpush 'machine1:file.txt machine2:file.txt' :/tmp/file_txt.@#copies file.txt in machine1 to /tmp/file.txt.machine1 in the local machine and the file with the same name in machine2 to the file /tmp/file.txt.machine2. Source SyntaxIf your source is a file or directory nothing is needed. If you are going to send several files you must protect them inside single quotes as in: $ parpush 'machine1:file1.txt machine2:file2.txt' cluster1-machine1-machine2:cluster expressions can be used in the source description argument as in: $ parpush -v 'machine1+machine2:.bashrc' machine3:/tmp/bashrc_at_@# Executing system command: scp machine1:.bashrc machine3:/tmp/bashrc_at_machine1 Executing system command: scp machine2:.bashrc machine3:/tmp/bashrc_at_machine2 machine3 output: machine3 output:SETTING SSH AUTOMATIC AUTHENTICATIONTo use this script you have to set automatic authentication via SSH between the source machine (your machine) and the other destiny machines. This section explains the simplified procedure. SSH includes the ability to authenticate users using public keys. Instead of authenticating the user with a password, the SSH server on the remote machine will verify a challenge signed by the user's private key against its copy of the user's public key. To achieve this automatic ssh-authentication you have to: Generate a public key use the ssh-keygen utility. For example: local.machine$ ssh-keygen -t dsa -N ''The option -t selects the type of key you want to generate. There are three types of keys: rsa1, rsa and dsa. The -N option is followed by the passphrase. The -N '' setting indicates that no passphrase will be used. This is useful when used with key restrictions or when dealing with cron jobs, batch commands and automatic processing which is the context in which this module was designed. By default, in !OpenSSH, your identification will be saved in a file /home/user/.ssh/id_dsa. Your public key will be saved in /home/user/.ssh/id_dsa.pub. If still you don't like to have a private key without passphrase, provide a passphrase and use ssh-agent to avoid the inconvenience of typing the passphrase each time. ssh-agent is a program you run once per login session and load your keys into. Keys are added to the ssh-agent using the program ssh-add. From that moment on, any ssh client will contact ssh-agent and no more passphrase typing will be needed. Use the program keychain to manage the communication with the agent from different sessions. Once you have generated a key pair, you must install the public key on the remote machine. To do it, append the public component of the key in /home/user/.ssh/id_rsa.pubto file /home/user/.ssh/authorized_keys on the remote machine. If the ssh-copy-id script is available, you can do it using: local.machine$ ssh-copy-id -i ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub user@remote.machineAlternatively you can write the following command: $ ssh remote.machine "umask 077; cat >> .ssh/authorized_keys" \ < /home/user/.ssh/id_rsa.pubThe umask command is needed since the SSH server will refuse to read a /home/user/.ssh/authorized_keys files which have loose permissions. Edit your local configuration file /home/user/.ssh/config (see man ssh_config in UNIX) and create a new section for GRID::Machine connections to that host. Here follows an example: ... # A new section inside the config file: # it will be used when writing a command like: # $ ssh gridyum Host gridyum # My username in the remote machine user my_login_in_the_remote_machine # The actual name of the machine: by default the one provided in the # command line Hostname real.machine.name # The port to use: by default 22 Port 2048 # The identitiy pair to use. By default ~/.ssh/id_rsa and ~/.ssh/id_dsa IdentityFile /home/user/.ssh/yumid # Useful to detect a broken network BatchMode yes # Useful when the home directory is shared across machines, # to avoid warnings about changed host keys when connecting # to local host NoHostAuthenticationForLocalhost yes # Another section ... Host another.remote.machine an.alias.for.this.machine user mylogin_there ...This way you don't have to specify your login name on the remote machine even if it differs from your login name in the local machine, you don't have to specify the port if it isn't 22, etc. This is the recommended way to work with GRID::Machine. Avoid cluttering the constructor new. Once the public key is installed on the server and the key added to the agent, you should be able to authenticate using your private key $ ssh remote.machine Linux remote.machine 2.6.15-1-686-smp #2 SMP Mon Mar 6 15:34:50 UTC 2006 i686 Last login: Sat Jul 7 13:34:00 2007 from local.machine user@remote.machine:~$SEE ALSOSet::Scalar Cluster ssh: cssh http://sourceforge.net/projects/clusterssh/ Project C3 http://www.csm.ornl.gov/torc/C3/ http://code.google.com/p/net-parscp/ GRID::Cluster GRID::Machine keychain article: http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/linux/library/l-keyc2/ AUTHORCasiano Rodriguez-Leon COPYRIGHT AND LICENSECopyright (C) 2009-2009 by Casiano Rodriguez-Leon This library is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify it under the same terms as Perl itself, either Perl version 5.8.8 or, at your option, any later version of Perl 5 you may have available.
