Due to the problems pointed what would be really needed is a filesystem with a full log of operations. Then the fs state (full contents of all files etc.) at any given time can be restored.
May not be very efficient, though (probably people doing databases and transaction logging have something to say). I'd rather have better backups (so I can restore from them) instead of such logging. -- Krzysztof Halasa - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
