I plan on getting a new 2U rackmount with one 9G and two 36GB SCSI's for a SAMBA
server.
I use tar currently for my mail server and it works fine. However, for this SAMBA
server
I'd prefer a "commercial" solution. I need to *remotely* backup/restore this
server...no
monitor or keyboard will be hooked up to this server. Any advice or recommends (as they
say in Japanese music stores) will be appreciated.
In addition planning to get a external DLT 40/80GB tape drive $4500 (ouch). Tapes
around
$80 a pop this ain't gonna be cheap. I wish we could go with a DDS-4 20/40GB tape
drive
but it probably won't be big enough. Or is it cheaper to get a DLT tape library of a
few
DLT 35/70GB tape drives?
************Commercial Backup Options********(any others?)
--BRU 16.0beta downloaded it and it was easy to get working. However, the promised
web
based administration wasn't available yet but should be soon for testing. Kinda like
SWAT:901 for samba. http://www.estinc.com $299 (I think that is the price)
--Arkeia 4.2 30-day demo. Going to try this once again. Don't like the interface all
that much but will reinstall and try to get the Web-based JAVA interface up and going
and
see what that is like. http://www.arkeia.com
these prices are from http://elinux.com
#57879 Arkeia Interactive Backup System $164
#57880 Arkeia Basic Linux Offering $289 (is this all I need?)
#57881 Arkeia Mini-LAN $479
#57882 Arkeia Enterprise-LAN $839
"Arkeia Linux as a Backup Solution" class....I wish I could have gone today but
couldn't
get away from work. They had a free class at the La Jolla Marriott...shucks would have
been a good overview I'm sure.
--ArcServeIT for Linux 6.61beta relased Jan 6th. I wish I could login or give this a
test
drive. Anyone have any luck? I guess to get support the email address is
[EMAIL PROTECTED] that's what the tech support phone dude told me to try.
http://www.cai.com $695 Workgroup (think this is all I need) or $1395 for Advanced
edition.
I've tried it on Redhat 6.2 English and got the web interface to come up but wasn't
able
to sucessfully login. So I installed a fresh copy of Redhat 6.2 Japanese and the
directory "ja" doesn't exist..thus the symbolic links aren't correct. Yes it supports
Japanese cuz I looked at the web interface images which have kanji, etc. The "nls"
directory does exist just not the "ja" directory.
