== Backups on Nada == Nada backups are full filesystem-wide backups using [http://duplicity.nongnu.org/ Duplicity]. The backups are incremental backups done weekly using [http://www.nongnu.org/rdiff-backup/ rdiff backup] (think [https://rsync.samba.org/ rsync]), are encrypted using a GPG key under Mako's control, and are stored in [https://cloud.google.com/storage/docs/nearline?hl=en Google Nearline storage] which costs about $0.01/GB. Backups run once at the beginning of each week. Everything is backed up except for the directories listed in <code>/root/duplicitity_exclude</code>. This page may not be up to date but the following files/directories are '''excluded''' at the time that this page was written: /mnt /media /mit /nonexistent /openafs_cache_fs /tmp /var/log /var/lib/mysql /var/lib/mongodb /var/lib/redis /var/lib/postgresql /var/spool /var/tmp /var/cache /lost+found /lolo /cdrom /floppy /proc /sys /root/.cache /root/nobackup /home/*/.cache /home/*/nobackup /home/awjordan
