Just "testing the waters" at this
juncture, making sure that our plan
isn't going to make Andy angry or anything like that.
I have two VPS's with bitfolk; my personal one and one that I am
donating to the virtual airline I am currently president of (on
separate servers). I'm thinking that for the purposes of backup of the
VA VPS, I can rsync the web folder over to a holding area on my
personal VPS on a daily basis, and do more traditional "everything"
backups (again, rsync) less frequently.
Is this feasible/considered an "OK" thing to do (Andy)? Would I be
better off raising a support ticket to have the backups done by
Bitfolk (assumes you're not already, o'course)?
Personally (I'm not Andy) I'd say that its your bandwidth, that you've
paid for so you can do what you want with it.
