Cloning the entire system. How?

Question

linux

Recommend applications under CentOS for cloning the entire system.
It is necessary to create an ISO image on one server and connect it via IPMI, boot and restore it on another server.
I tried clonesys - it has outdated USB drivers, so during boot it is impossible to answer bootloader questions via KVM.
Acronis is an expensive license.

thanks in advance.

Answer 1

Good open source cloner.

Answer 2

dd will help you if I understand the task correctly.

Answer 3

hmhm, well, if you pervert, you can write dd to stdout, and on the other side, through nc or ssh, catch it on a PXE-loaded server :)
I think the installation option and rsync -az -e ssh / [email protected]:/ will be much easier.
