= backup1 =

Located at castle, this machine acts as the primary backup location for all VPS-based customers. No customer directly accesses this server to perform their backups. We also store cancelled customers on this server. It is running Ubuntu-Server 8.04 x86, and has a 4.5 TB (6 x 1TB) RAID5 array running on a 3ware 9650SE-8LPML (8-port) card. Its drives are non-hot-swap.

Services provided: 
* backup via rsync
* mysql

Usage:
* all data is stored under /data
* each virt or jail backs up each evening to backup1. Each server has it's own directory (named for the server). Under those directories are 7 daily snapshots (0-6)
* at the time of writing, the mysql server running here is replicating from (slave to) the mysql instance on bwdb. Requests for bandwidth data usage for customers (coming from management, account manager, and accounting scripts running on mail) all direct towards the database "traffic" running on this server.
* cancelled customer systems are compressed and stored under <tt>/data/deprecated</tt>
* archived bwdb2 flow files are stored under <tt>/data/bwdb2</tt>
* critical files from backup2 are stored under <tt>/data/backup2</tt>

Cronjobs:
<tt>35 5 * * * /usr/local/sbin/usage_check; /usr/local/sbin/snapshot_archive; /usr/local/sbin/snapshot_rotate  /data/backuplog.log</tt>
this runs daily the scripts to report on how much disk space each customer system occupies and how long their backups took

samba: iso images provided for customers wanting to mount an ISO as a CDROM via the IPKVM are provided via samba on this server. Images live under <tt>/data/iso</tt>
