V120 SPARC MIRROR DRIVES SETUP
I have a V120 SPARC running Solaris 9 and I am getting ready to install a second 73GB hard drive in my system to use for backing up my primary drive. I do not need realtime syncing, twice a day would be fine, but would like to be able to boot off the second drive if necessary. Can anyone give me directions on how to set this up? Thank you.

Many ways to do this. rsync, rdist, cpio, tar, ufsdump, etc. etc. etc. Of course you can always just mirror the drive with SVM too.

From the short description rsync looks to be what I am looking for. Can anyone tell me more about it, since I am not familiar with it? Can you also provide some information on rdist, which I am also not familiar with? Thanks.
