Dump backup

Dump is mainly used to back up a real file system backup. Although it can also back up a single directory, it does not provide sufficient support for the directory. We recommend that you back up a single directory by packing and compressing it.

Dump another function is to set the level, that is, Incremental Backup can be performed.

Dump levels are divided into 0 ~ 9: 10 levels. 0 indicates full backup, 1 indicates Incremental Backup Based on 0, and so on.

When the data to be backed up is a single file system

Level 0 ~ 9. Back up data and use the full dump function.

When the data to be backed up is only a directory, it is not a single file system

Restrictions:

All backup data must be in this directory

Only level 0 can be used for data backup

The-u parameter is not supported, that is, the/etc/dumpdates level backup time record file cannot be created

Syntax: dump [-Suvj] [-level] [-f backup file] data to be backed up

Dump-W

Options and parameters:

-S: only list the disk space required for data backup to be completed.

-U: record this backup to the/etc/dumpdates file.

-V: displays the dump file process.

-J: added support for bzip2 to compress data. The default compression level is 2.

-Level: Backup grade 0 ~ 9

-F: Backup File

-W: List whether the partitions with dump settings have been backed up in/etc/fstab.

Example 1: Mount backup to/boot file system level-0

[Root @ localhost ~] # Dump-S/boot16752640 [root @ localhost ~] # Dump-u-0-f/root/boot. dump.0/boot DUMP: Date of this level 0 dump: Fri Feb 28 15:05:56 2014 DUMP: Dumping/dev/sda1 (/boot) to/root/boot. dump.0 DUMP: Label:/boot DUMP: Writing 10 Kilobyte records DUMP: mapping (Pass I) [regular files] DUMP: mapping (Pass II) [directories] DUMP: estimated 16360 blocks. DUMP: Volume 1 started with block 1 at: Fri Feb 28 15:05:56 2014 DUMP: dumping (Pass III) [Directories] DUMP: dumping (Pass IV) [regular files] DUMP: Closing/root/boot. dump.0 DUMP: Volume 1 completed at: Fri Feb 28 15:05:58 2014 DUMP: Volume 1 16440 blocks (16.05 MB) DUMP: Volume 1 took 0:00:02 DUMP: Volume 1 transfer rate: 8220 kB/s DUMP: 16440 blocks (16.05 MB) on 1 volume (s) DUMP: finished in 2 seconds, throughput 8220 kBytes/sec DUMP: Date of this level 0 dump: fri Feb 28 15:05:56 2 014 DUMP: Date this dump completed: Fri Feb 28 15:05:58 2014 DUMP: Average transfer rate: 8220 kB/s DUMP: dump is done [root @ localhost ~] # Cat/etc/dumpdates/dev/sda1 0 Fri Feb 28 15:05:56 2014 + 0800 => You Can See That etc/dumpdates records the backup information.

Example 2: view the backup records of the file system

[Root @ localhost ~] # Dump-WLast dump (s) done (Dump '> 'file systems):>/dev/sda2 (/) Last dump: never>/dev/sda3 (/home) last dump: never/dev/sda1 (/boot) Last dump: Level 0, Dat>/dev/sda6 (/mnt/sda6) Last dump: never => we can see that sda1 has been backed up by level0, and others have not yet been backed up.

Example 3: Incremental Backup level 1

[Root @ localhost ~] # Dd if =/dev/zero of =/boot/bigfile. img bs = 1 M count = 2020 + 0 records in20 + 0 records out20971520 bytes (21 MB) copied, 0.320717 seconds, 65.4 MB/s => first create a file about 20 mb [root @ localhost ~] # Dump-u-1-f/root/boot. dump.1/boot DUMP: Date of this level 1 dump: Fri Feb 28 15:17:51 2014 DUMP: Date of last level 0 dump: Fri Feb 28 15:05:56 2014 DUMP: dumping/dev/sda1 (/boot) to/root/boot. dump.1 DUMP: Label:/boot DUMP: Writing 10 Kilobyte records DUMP: mapping (Pass I) [regular files] DUMP: mapping (Pass II) [directories] DUMP: estimated 20543 blocks.

It can be seen that it is an incremental backup.

Example 4: backing up a single directory

[root@localhost ~]# dump -0 -f /root/etc.dump /etc  DUMP: Date of this level 0 dump: Fri Feb 28 15:23:39 2014  DUMP: Dumping /dev/sda2 (/ (dir etc)) to /root/etc.dumpDUMP: Label: /  DUMP: Writing 10 Kilobyte records  DUMP: mapping (Pass I) [regular files]  DUMP: mapping (Pass II) [directories]  DUMP: estimated 177675 blocks.

Restore

The dump backup file is restored by the restore.

Syntax:

View the dump file: restore-t [-f dumpfile] [-h]

Compare dump with the actual file: restore-C [-f dumpfile]-D mount point

Enter interaction mode (restore a single file): restore-I [-f dumpfile]

Restore the entire file system: restore-r [-f dumpfile]

Options and parameters:

Different models cannot be mixed. For example, you cannot write-tC

-T: This mode is used to check the important data contained in the dump backup file! Similar to the tar-t function;

-C: In this mode, the data in dump can be taken out and compared with the actual file system. In the end, files with records in the dump file are listed, which are different from those in the current file system;

-I: In interactive mode, only some files can be restored and used to restore the dump directory.

-R: A mode for restoring the entire filesystem. It is used to restore the dump backup for the file system;

Other commonly used options:

-H: View inode, file system label, and other information in the complete backup data.

-F: The dump file you want to process

-D: Works with-C to check whether the mount point to be followed is different from that in dump.

Example 1: view the dump backup file

[root@localhost ~]# restore -t -f /root/boot.dump.0Dump   date: Fri Feb 28 15:05:56 2014Dumped from: the epochLevel 0 dump of /boot on localhost.localdomain:/dev/sda1Label: /boot         2      .        11      ./lost+found     10041      ./grub     10059      ./grub/grub.conf…….        14      ./System.map-2.6.18-371.el5        15      ./config-2.6.18-371.el5        16      ./symvers-2.6.18-371.el5.gz        17      ./vmlinuz-2.6.18-371.el5

Dd

Dd is not only used to create files, but also "backup", cp, and dump are simple file data copies. dd can read all the content of the device, such as superblock, boot sector, mete data, etc.

Syntax: dd if = "input file" of = "output file" bs = "block" count = "number"

Options and parameters:

If: input file or device

Of: output file or device

Bs: the size of each block. The default value is 512 KB.

Count: number of blocks

Example 1. file backup

[root@localhost ~]# dd if=~/.bashrc of=/tmp/bashrc 0+1 records in0+1 records out176 bytes (176 B) copied, 7.3142e-05 seconds, 2.4 MB/s[root@localhost ~]# ll /tmp/bashrc -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 176 02-28 16:17 /tmp/bashrc

Example 2: File System Backup

[root@localhost ~]# dd if=/dev/sda1 of=/tmp/boot.dd bs=1M 101+1 records in101+1 records out106896384 bytes (107 MB) copied, 9.60492 seconds, 11.1 MB/s[root@localhost ~]# ll /tmp/boot.dd-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 106896384 02-28 16:19 /tmp/boot.dd

Example 3: File System Restoration

[Root @ localhost ~] # Dd if =/tmp/boot. dd of =/dev/sda1 bs = 1 M

Example 4. Complete File System Replication

During Dump backup, we need to first back up the file system with Dump, then create a new file system, format it, And then restore the backup file to the new file system.

You can use dd to completely copy a file system without formatting, because dd copies uperblock, boot sector, mete data, and other information. Isn't formatting exactly the same?
