I dont have any experience about backup, but i need to do this work. So i kinly need your answers. And sorry for my English.
BR.
One primary concern about how to backup is whether the system has UFS or ZFS filesystems. You can research how to backup each on this forum and/or the web. Basically, the backup method is the same whether you are backing up over NFS, tape drive, USB drive, or whatever. You simply need to be able to specify a 'device' to write to.
Also, in the case of USB external disks, you need to know how to write a filesystem to the device and then mount it to make it available. Start by reading this thread here:
where I give advice on USB disk specifically. I also refer to a previous thread about backup in general. Follow those links too.
