Hi, I have the following backup strategy: I make a full backup once a month, then from tuesday to thursday I make an incremental backup. On every friday I make a differential backup. This backup is made in an external hd (1.5Tera). On the next month, I repeat the process, but using another external hd. On the third month I delete all files from month 1 and use the external hd again, so in practical terms my preservation criteria is one month. I need to implement a process to preserve backup for more time (say 1 year). The only solution for this is purchasing 12 external hds and rotates each one from month to month. Some of you have a suggestion to make this process better? Thanks. Marcelo
PS: I dont want to use tapes, but only hds. Someone gave a suggestion of using a cloud backup service, but I dont trust 100% on these services. -- ############################################################### Luis Marcelo Achite, MSc Information Technology Manager Inter-American Institute for Global Change Research - IAI Avenida dos Astronautas, 1758, Jardim da Granja 12227-010 Sao Jose dos Campos - Sao Paulo - Brazil Phone: (55-12) 3208-6868 Fax: (55-12) 3941-4410 e-mail : lmach...@dir.iai.int Skype: lmachite Twitter: @lmachite Facebook: http://www.facebook.com/lmachite Blog: http://tecnoinfolma.blogspot.com/ ############################################################### -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner, and is believed to be clean. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Live Security Virtual Conference Exclusive live event will cover all the ways today's security and threat landscape has changed and how IT managers can respond.
