restore backup archive over network via ssh
Hi,
i backup my server to my desktop using afio. I then burn it to DVD also.
Now i'm thinking of how i can restore those archives without first
copying them to the server again.
I'm thinking of when the HD will crash one day and i need to restore it
quickly. I would then boot from a livecd and start an ssh server so i
can ssh in from my box and send the archives across.
I can't seem to figure out what command i need to extract the afio
archive on my box and send the files to the server.
I can extract the archive and i can ssh to the server but tying these 2
together isn't working.
I can do a simple test with scp but that's only handy if you want to
copy the archive over and not the content of the archive.
I googled around and can't seem to find anything specific.
Is this possible and how can i do it?
Thanks,
Benedict
