Hi... Sorry not emailing to [EMAIL PROTECTED] but it rejected my email (i will check my log files to find out why). Anyway a great bit of software but i would like to ask if this is possiable (see feature request below. hopefully in right format). If i can help in any way please let me know (i don;t know much C but i can write PHP and other stuff) many thanks calvin streeting -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Item n: archive data Origin: calvin streeting [EMAIL PROTECTED] Date: 15/5/2006 What: The abilty to archive to media (dvd/cd) in a uncompressd format for dead filing (archiving not backing up) Why: At my works when jobs are finished and moved off of the main file servers (raid based systems) onto a simple linux file server (ide based system) so users can find old information without contacting the IT dept. So this data dosn't realy change it only gets added to, But it also needs backing up. At the moment it takes about 8 hours to back up our servers (working data) so rather than add more time to existing backups i am trying to implement a system where we backup the acrhive data to cd/dvd these disks would only need to be appended to (burn only new/changed files to new disks for off site storage). basialy understand the differnce between achive data and live data. Notes: scan the data and email me when it needs burning divide into predifind chunks keep a recored of what is on what disk make me a label (simple php->mysql=>pdf stuff) i could do this bit ability to save data uncompresed so it can be read in any other system (future proof data) save the catalog with the disk as some kind of menu system Best regards, Kern ------------------------------------------------------- All the advantages of Linux Managed Hosting--Without the Cost and Risk!
