| To continue, we need to create a tree structure to be backed up: | Before proceeding further, you need to create some files and directories to backup and archive: |

| | |
| | ===LAB #1 - Working with the tar command=== |
| | |
| | You can now proceed with the back-up of the directory **test** and it's contents to an ordinary file: |
| | |
| | <code> |
| | [root@redhat9 dirZ]# tar cvf /tmp/test.tar /test |
| | tar: Removing leading `/' from member names |
| | /test/ |
| | /test/dirY/ |
| | /test/dirY/Y1 |
| | /test/dirY/Y2 |
| | /test/dirY/Y3 |
| | /test/dirZ/ |
| | /test/dirZ/Z1 |
| | /test/dirZ/Z2 |
| | </code> |
| | |
| | To view the **table of contents** of your backup, use the following command: |
| | |
| | <code> |
| | [root@redhat9 dirZ]# tar tvf /tmp/test.tar |
| | drwxr-xr-x root/root 0 2024-09-27 07:51 test/ |
| | drwxr-xr-x root/root 0 2024-09-27 07:51 test/dirY/ |
| | -rw-r--r-- root/root 0 2024-09-27 07:51 test/dirY/Y1 |
| | -rw-r--r-- root/root 0 2024-09-27 07:51 test/dirY/Y2 |
| | -rw-r--r-- root/root 0 2024-09-27 07:51 test/dirY/Y3 |
| | drwxr-xr-x root/root 0 2024-09-27 07:51 test/dirZ/ |
| | -rw-r--r-- root/root 0 2024-09-27 07:51 test/dirZ/Z1 |
| | -rw-r--r-- root/root 0 2024-09-27 07:51 test/dirZ/Z2 |
| | </code> |
| | |
| | In order to create an incremental back-up, you now need to create an empty file to be used as a time reference file. All files modified or created after the creation of this file will be included in the incremental archive: |
| | |
| | <code> |
| | [root@redhat9 dirZ]# touch /tmp/dateref |
| | </code> |
| | |
| | Now modify two of the files in your **test** tree: |
| | |
| | <code> |
| | [root@redhat9 dirZ]# echo ‘CentOS is great!’ > /test/dirY/Y1 |
| | |
| | [root@redhat9 dirZ]# echo ‘RHEL is wonderful!’ > /test/dirZ/Z1 |
| | </code> |
| | |
| | To perform your incremental backup, you need to back up only the files modified or created since the creation of your **/tmp/dateref** file. |
| | |
| | Enter the following command: |
| | |
| | <code> |
| | [root@redhat9 dirZ]# tar -cvf /tmp/incremental.tar -N /tmp/dateref /test |
| | tar: Removing leading `/' from member names |
| | /test/ |
| | /test/dirY/ |
| | /test/dirY/Y1 |
| | tar: /test/dirY/Y2: file is unchanged; not dumped |
| | tar: /test/dirY/Y3: file is unchanged; not dumped |
| | /test/dirZ/ |
| | /test/dirZ/Z1 |
| | tar: /test/dirZ/Z2: file is unchanged; not dumped |
| | </code> |
| | |
| | <WRAP center round important 60%> |
| | **Important** - Note the use of the **-N** option with the **/tmp/dateref** argument, which identifies files modified or created since **/tmp/dateref** was created. |
| | </WRAP> |
| | |
| | Now check the contents of the **/tmp/incremental.tar** archive: |
| | |
| | <code> |
| | [root@redhat9 dirZ]# tar tvf /tmp/incremental.tar |
| | drwxr-xr-x root/root 0 2024-09-27 07:51 test/ |
| | drwxr-xr-x root/root 0 2024-09-27 07:51 test/dirY/ |
| | -rw-r--r-- root/root 20 2024-09-27 07:58 test/dirY/Y1 |
| | drwxr-xr-x root/root 0 2024-09-27 07:51 test/dirZ/ |
| | -rw-r--r-- root/root 21 2024-09-27 07:58 test/dirZ/Z1 |
| | </code> |
| | |
| | Now delete the contents of the **test** directory: |
| | |
| | <code> |
| | [root@redhat9 dirZ]# rm -rf /test/* |
| | </code> |
| | |
| | <WRAP center round important 60%> |
| | **Important** - Note that the system allows you to delete the **/test/dirZ** directory, yet you are located in this very directory! |
| | </WRAP> |
| | |
| | In order to restore the files from your first backup, go to the root of your system and restore the contents of your **test** directory by entering the following tar command: |
| | |
| | <code> |
| | [root@redhat9 ~]# cd / |
| | [root@redhat9 /]# tar xvf /tmp/test.tar |
| | test/ |
| | test/dirY/ |
| | test/dirY/Y1 |
| | test/dirY/Y2 |
| | test/dirY/Y3 |
| | test/dirZ/ |
| | test/dirZ/Z1 |
| | test/dirZ/Z2 |
| | </code> |
| | |
| | Using the **ls** command, you can check that the contents of the **test** directory have been restored: |
| | |
| | <code> |
| | root@redhat9 /]# ls -lR /test |
| | /test: |
| | total 0 |
| | drwxr-xr-x. 2 root root 36 Sep 27 07:51 dirY |

| | -rw-r--r--. 1 root root 0 Sep 27 07:51 Z1 |
| | -rw-r--r--. 1 root root 0 Sep 27 07:51 Z2 |
| | </code> |
| | |
| | <WRAP center round important 60%> |
| | **Important** - Note that at this point the **/test/dirY/Y1** and **/test/dirZ/Z1** files are empty. |
| | </WRAP> |
| | |
| | Now restore your incremental archive: |
| | |
| | <code> |
| | [root@redhat9 /]# tar xvf /tmp/incremental.tar |
| | test/ |
| | test/dirY/ |
| | test/dirY/Y1 |
| | test/dirZ/ |
| | test/dirZ/Z1 |
| | </code> |
| | |
| | Using the **ls** command, you can check that the contents of incremental.tar have been restored: |
| | |
| | <code> |
| | [root@redhat9 /]# ls -lR /test |
| | /test: |
| | total 0 |
| | drwxr-xr-x. 2 root root 36 Sep 27 07:51 dirY |

| | </code> |
| | |
| | <WRAP center round important 60%> |
| | **Important** - Note that the **/test/dirY/Y1** and **/test/dirZ/Z1** files are now non-empty. |

| | |
| | ===The GPL tar command and compression=== |
| | |
| | Lastly, the tar command can archive using compression algorithms: |

| | | lzma | J | |
| |

| |
| ===LAB #1 - Working with the tar command=== | ====The cpio Command==== |
| |
| You will now save your **test** folder and its contents to a file: | ===Overview=== |
| |
| <code> | The **cpio** (Copy Input To Output) command. cpio can handle archives in **tar** format. The major difference between tar and cpio is that the latter stores the paths to the saved files at the same time as the files themselves. This means that if the absolute path was specified at the time of backup, it is impossible to restore a file to a location other than its original location. |
| [root@redhat9 dirZ]# tar cvf /tmp/test.tar /test | |
| tar: Removing leading `/' from member names | |
| /test/ | |
| /test/dirY/ | |
| /test/dirY/Y1 | |

| /test/dirY/Y3 | |
| /test/dirZ/ | |
| /test/dirZ/Z1 | |
| /test/dirZ/Z2 | |
| </code> | |
| |
| To view the **table of contents** of your backup, use the following command: | You will now use the **cpio** software to perform backups and restores. |
| |
| <code> | ===LAB #2 - Working with the cpio command=== |
| [root@redhat9 dirZ]# tar tvf /tmp/test.tar | |
| drwxr-xr-x root/root 0 2024-09-27 07:51 test/ | |

| -rw-r--r-- root/root 0 2024-09-27 07:51 test/dirZ/Z2 | |
| </code> | |
| |
| In order to create an incremental backup, you need to create a file that will serve as a time reference: | As a first step, you need to use the **find** command to build a list of files to back up: |
| |
| <code> | <code> |
| [root@redhat9 dirZ]# touch /tmp/dateref | [root@redhat9 /]# find /test > /tmp/cpio.list |
| | [root@redhat9 /]# cat /tmp/cpio.list |
| | /test |
| | /test/dirY |
| | /test/dirY/Y2 |
| | /test/dirY/Y3 |
| | /test/dirY/Y1 |
| | /test/dirZ |
| | /test/dirZ/Z2 |
| | /test/dirZ/Z1 |
| </code> | </code> |
| |
| Now modify two of the files in your **test** tree: | Now back up the files and directories referenced by the **/tmp/cpio.list** file: |
| |
| <code> | <code> |
| [root@redhat9 dirZ]# echo ‘CentOS is great!’ > /test/dirY/Y1 | [root@redhat9 /]# cpio -ov < /tmp/cpio.list > /tmp/test.cpio |

| </code> | </code> |
| |
| Now delete the contents of the **test** directory: | Check that the deletion is successful: |

| ====The dd command ==== | |
| |
| ===Overview=== | |
| |
| The **dd** command is not actually a backup command. | |
| |
| The **dd** command copies the file passed as input to the output file, limiting the number of bytes copied by using two options: | |
| |
| * **count** | |
| * the number | |
| * **bs** | |
| * the size of the block to be copied | |

| ===LAB #3 - Working with the dd command=== | |
| |
| You will now use **dd** to make a backup of your MBR and partition table. | |
| |
| Make a backup of your MBR, which is located in the first 446 bytes of your **/dev/sda** disk: | |
| |
| <code> | |
| [root@redhat9 /]# dd if=/dev/sda of=/tmp/mbr.save bs=1 count=446 | |
| 446+0 records in | |
| 446+0 records out | |
| 446 bytes copied, 0.00114645 s, 389 kB/s | |
| </code> | |
| |
| Now make a backup of your partition table which is in the 64 bytes after the 446 previously saved: | |
| |
| <code> | |
| [root@redhat9 /]# dd if=/dev/sda of=/tmp/tblpart.save bs=1 count=64 skip=446 | |
| 64+0 records in | |
| 64+0 records out | |
