# Usage Instructions:
# Boot up your desktop/server with System Rescue CD version 1.3.2 for i386/amd64.
# Then execute this backup script. You need to adapt this script to work for your environment.
# Download System Rescue CD from http://www.sysresccd.org/Main_Page
# FAQ
# Q: Why do I want to write this cloning script when there are many open source cloning software available?
# A: I am previously using Clonezilla. It is a very good cloning software. However, it could not detect all the
# virtual machines in my LVM2 logical volumes and had to fall back on using dd to image all my domUs,
# which resulted in an enormous 300 GB (!) backup image set and an extremely lengthy cloning process of
# 7 hours. Clonezilla is very good for LVs which only contain filesystems, but not for LVs which contain
# virtual machines with MBR, partition geometries and full fledged operating systems. It is very diffcult
# to image nested logical volumes, i.e. logical volumes within logical volumes. And the PV within a LV is
# the barrier. So it is not Clonezilla's fault. Anybody who knows how to activate all the logical volumes
# of all the volume groups within LVM2 physical volumes inside a logical volume hosting a virtual machine,
# please share your knowledge with me. Thank you very much.

# The following 8 virtual machines have LVM2 physical volumes, so it is not possible to image using partimage
# or fsarchiver directly, as both do not support PVs. The only convenient way is to image the logical volume
# for the VM using dd, ie. sector by sector copy, and then piping it to gzip for a smaller backup image.
# Other methods would have been more involved and tedious.
