Backing-up OSCAR 5 Data

According to the start_over script, the OSCAR 5 data could possibly be backed-up with the tar command:

tar cf /backup/oscar.tar /opt/kernel_picker /etc/systemimager /etc/dhcpd.conf /etc/profile.d/00-modules.* /etc/profile.d/c3.* /etc/profile.d/oscar_home.* /etc/profile.d/ssh-oscar.* /etc/systeminstaller /opt/env-switcher* /opt/lam* /opt/maui /opt/modules /opt/mpich* /opt/pbs /opt/perl-Qt /opt/sync_files /tftpboot/initrd.img /tftpboot/kernel /tftpboot/pxelinux.* /usr/lib/systemimager /usr/lib/systeminstaller /var/lib/ganglia /var/lib/mysql /var/lib/oscar /var/lib/systemimager /var/log/systemimager /var/spool/pbs /opt/oscar /etc/httpd/conf.d/ganglia.conf /etc/ssh

This can be useful when you want to change your head node or simply backing it up. (This entry is an imaginary solution to backing up the essential part of the head node/cluster server.)
