Hello Freebsd Questions, I'm using DVD-R to back up our Perforce SCM server. The size of backup data is 13Gb now and increase ~ 1Gb in two months. The full backups was made every week, incrementary - every day. I have made a custom script to start archiver, split on the fly results to adequate sized files (< 1Gb), evaluate checksum and burn it onto DVD. The script also verify burned DVD by using stored checksums, and burn DVD again if needed. The problem is: i can't compose DVD's on the fly, i need to save them somewhere. I need to have a big, fast and reliable temporary filesystem. It doesn't needed to survive reboots. It must be fast writing. (RAID5 vinum array which i have is slow performs writes) And even if one of the disks in server computer will broke (i have a vinum on them), the backup procedure must still works. Does anybody have expirience with temporary fast filesystems ? Best Regards, Alexander Derevianko.
