BACKTRACK TOOLS ON UBUNTU

Data loss is a horrible reality and it may occur to any system, nevertheless of the hardware and system configuration. You can prevent such situations by creating a reliable and complete backup of your storage media. In Linux operating system, you can use mondoarchive command for this purpose. If you have a complete backup of your data, you can prevent need of Linux Data Recovery in case of any mishap.

The mondoarchive command backups a subset of all your files, whole file system, or even the images of non-Linux file systems to tape, ISO images, CDs, or an NFS (Network File System) mount. In case of critical data loss situations, you would be able to easily restore all your data and information, taking your system from mere metal state to its original state if required.

This command-line utility provides following two parameters for different operations-

-O: With this parameter mondoarchive backs up entire file system to the CD, ISO image, tape or to NFS volume. A special boot CD or the boot floppies would be created to enable you to restore data from the bare metal if required.

-V: With this parameter mondoarchive command verifies backup against the live Linux file system. The option might be used in the combination with -O parameter for verifying the backup after its creation, or independently to check how much the live Linux file system has modified since backup was created.

You can call the mondoarchive command without flags for making this auto-detect as many configuration settings as possible, ask you for the rest and then create backup and verify the operating system or the subset thereof.
In order to restore data from backup, you can either run the mondorestore from command line or boot your system from emergency floppies/CD generated while backing up the data. The latter would prove helpful if gremlin wipes the drive.

In case if the backup gets damage or the backup media fails, you can not restore data from backup and need to opt for Data Recovery Linux. The Linux Recovery in such situations is possible through third-party applications.
The tools are known as Linux Data Recovery software. They use high-end scanning techniques to methodically scan the entire hard drive and retrieve all of the lost data. With rich graphical user interface and read-only conduct, the utilities are easy and safe to use.
