DR is disaster recovery.<br>Copy is OK...I tar the file and sftp to the server.<br>backup/restore work ok from CLI for me too, but only if backup is done of the original server and resotre is done on the same server.<br>Tring taking backup of server A and restore it to vanilly server B does not. Will that work for anyone?
