This is not a solution at all, because Bacula every time you create new backup will create new virtual tapes, and since rsync "deduplicate" only files, not entire amount of data that is going to be transfared, this do not solve anything for us. Acctually I am not even sure if we would use LVM on botom and rsync those snapshots of a LVM volumes, I guess rsync do not compare hashes of all blocks of transfered but only first block hash with a first block, second with a second,... So again, rsync would not be help even in this case.

Then use rsync (possibly run from a cron job) to send the volumes offsite. John ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Come build with us!
