what if we think about backups? the data is backed up if the user wants but what about the os, settings, greyhole stuff... basically everything besides the data.
say we have
  • /boot 0.5gb
  • / 20gb
  • /home 10gb
  • /var/hda/files 100gb or more... basically the rest of the disk
we include the /var/hda/files to the pool. if i wanted to backup the system state then i would backup /boot, /, /home... now what about the landing zone. if /var/hda/files is included in the pool it would contain two things:
  • links to the real files (correct me if i'm wrong) wich amahi/greyhole uses to keep track of the shares
  • the real data
what would be the recomeneded way to backup the system state: os, settings, apps, apps settings, greyhole stuff... in fact everything besides data?

For Greyhole, there's nothing that you really need to backup.
Greyhole can reconstruct everything from just the data drives.

For the rest, I suggest you start a new thread in another forum. You'll have much more chances to get answers there.
But from what I know, there isn't yet any procedure or method to backup Amahi.
