I list, I'm new with backup ops and I'm searching a good system to accomplish this work. I know that on centos there are bacula and amanda but they are too tape oriented. Another is that they are very powerfull but more complex. I need a solution for small office for disk storage and I found Backup PC. Many people say that it is great for small stuff and for great number of data.
What do you mean about Backup PC? Any experiences? What solution do you use?
Les, who I'm sure will hop in, likes it. We have a home-grown system that automates rsync.
My assistant liked backuppc. It is OK and will do decent job for really small number of machines (thinking 3-4 IMHO). I run bacula which has close to a hundred of clients; all is stored in files on RAID units, no tapes. Once you configure it it is nice. But to make a configuration work for the first time is really challenging (says one who still managed to configure it ;-)
Good luck!
