To cover that many files in that much time you will require a high speed system. Just another thought. Perhaps splitting the backup onto multiple backup servers / storage systems would reduce the backup time so that it fits into your window? Also, I strongly agree with the previous posts relating to file system snapshots. ZFS is just one file system which supports this kind of system. --------------------------------------------------------------------- This email is protected by LBackup, an open source backup solution. http://www.lbackup.org -- Please use reply-all for most replies to avoid omitting the mailing list.
