[BLU/Officers] in situ backups



While I like the idea of an in-situ backup, it does not make any sense
for Pegasus. I could probably run a nightly backup on my system.
We are currently at 91% on /var (but we have some free space on the
Volume Group). But we have an unused 200GB on each of the remaining
space on the 300GB drives.
I have not heard from JABR today, but logwatch is reporting drive full.
I have to go out for a while, but If I don't get a response from JABR, I
will expand the /var logical volume to get the utilization down.
Filesystem            Size  Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/mapper/PegasusVG-Root
                      9.5G  5.4G  3.6G  61% /
/dev/mapper/PegasusVG-Var
                      3.8G  3.3G  365M  91% /var

                      248M   16M  220M   7% /usr/local
/dev/mapper/PegasusVG-Home
                       37G   30G  5.0G  86% /home
/dev/mapper/PegasusVG-Opt
                      1.2G  446M  701M  39% /opt
/dev/md0               99M   33M   61M  35% /boot
tmpfs                 6.9G     0  6.9G   0% /dev/shm
/dev/sdb3             208G  1.5G  196G   1% /archive1
/dev/sdc3             208G  188M  197G   1% /archive2

/dev/md1 is currently about 68GB. What I would like to do is to create
another VG and RAID1 on the 2 300GB drives and move /home and /var. and
use /dev/md1 for root and swap.
