All of my OS system isoperating systems are mounted inon one partition, it's /dev/vda1.

Is there problem if I backup the entire linuxLinux directory with this command

root@myOS:/# tar -cJpf /mnt/bax/myOS.tar.xz .

So basicallyBasically I backup the entire system and save it inon my second partition.

Where /mnt/bax has been mounted by /dev/vda2 (second partition).

I'm afraid ifthat a recursive backup happenedwill happen, I mean since /dev/vda2 is mounted, thatsdoes that mean a recursive backup will happen?
