Hmmm - very interesting, I need to examin that specific solution. Reading the website I stumbled over this information: What LBackup is Not: LBackup is not intended for large scale deployment, unless used in combination with some sort of file system management tool. Should it be a problem to have it backup 200 clients to a couple of xraids (perhaps to be changed to an xsan). :-) TvE -- Please use reply-all for most replies to avoid omitting the mailing list.
