Hi, So, Backups are made for two reasons: - Someone broke in/the place burned down/whatever, and we lost all our data and we need to recover from that, preferably with as little data loss as possible. To be able to do so, you need to have off-site backups, preferably the latest if possible. - Someone accidentally pressed 'delete' on the wrong file, and we need to get it back. To be able to do so, you need to have on-site backups, preferably the latest if possible.
Notice how these to requirements conflict. Is it possible to have bacula base its incremental backups not on the most recent full backup, but on the one preceding that? This way, you can have your most recent full backup off-site, yet you should still be able to restore the most recent version of a file, even if that tape just happens to be off-site, without having to retrive them from the off-site location. -- Wouter Verhelst NixSys BVBA Louizastraat 14, 2800 Mechelen T: +32 15 27 69 50 / F: +32 15 27 69 51 / M: +32 486 836 198 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Doing More with Less: The Next Generation Virtual Desktop What are the key obstacles that have prevented many mid-market businesses from deploying virtual desktops?
