I need to backup large volume to DVD media.
I want to be able to put recovery data and to split it to volumes.
I prefer to work with regular linux commands.
The most important thing is that, if the DVD media will have bad
sectors, I will be able to retrieve my data.
So I thought of burning each volume 3 times. But I'm looking for an
elegant solution.
You need a dar. It's support slices, par2 recovery data, compression
(gzip, bzip2), encryption and more.
http://dar.linux.free.fr/
All features: http://dar.linux.free.fr/doc/Features.html
And just an example from site:
"Archived all of his data (in particular a huge web site) in a single,
multi-slice dar backup. The result is the biggest archive that I have
ever heard about: 1.4 Terabytes using dar 2.0.x and two hundred (!) DVD-Rs"
