Drivnal is a backup utility created using rsync with a web interface to manage volumes, snapshots and restore files. Similar to Time Machine all snapshots store only the changed files from the previous snapshot and hard links are created for unchanged files. Unchanged files are never stored more then once on the snapshot volume. All snapshots are independent of the other snapshots and previous snapshots are not required to restore files from a snapshot. For more information on how this works read the hard links wiki page.
A python script server.py is included in the root directory to run the
server from the root dir. The server will use the unbuilt web files,
modification to the server will be automatically reloaded. Vagrant can also be
used to safely develop in a virtualized environment, testing the webapp with
vagrant will not modify the host system. When developing with vagrant the root
directory will automatically sync to the guest system at /vagrant and the
port 6500 will be forwarded to allow access to the webapp on host system. The
vagrant setup will also setup collectd to monitor performance of guest system.
