- Hello All!
-
- I'd like to set up an incremental backup strategy for our network.
- Currently, we just TAR all the user files every night, which eats about six
- hours, and wastes tape. . .
-
- So, I put it to you. . .What are the decent methods/programs/scripts
- available to get a full, flexible backup strategy up and running on a Sun?
-
- BTW. We're running a 670 MP with 36 clients, roughly 10 gigs of
- disk space (distributed across the net, of course). Sun OS 4.1.2, OW 3.0.
