Since we discussed local backup, I thought I'd mention that dirvish 
can do a local backup as well as remote: when you specify the client:
identical to the result of 'hostname', dirvish just rsyncs the files
locally. This makes sense if you have mounted RAID/backed up/NAS/SAN
filesystems in your local namespace.

There is an excellent Dirvish writeup at
