Hi,
You can install a Linux workstation and restore it thereto.
If you dont have the hardware, you might use VMWare Server (free as in beer)
and install Linux there.

If you're using LVM, cant you use snapshots to do 'live' backups? (You dont
have to take the guest offline)
Here's how:

If you are using compression, it can only decompress (restore) the files on

Hi,
I use several usbdisks like this. I manually update the device-status when all
backups for that week are completed. (I set it to 'full')
There's probably a better way to do it (without manual intervention), but it

Well, I'm doing a similar thing using 2 seperate catalogs.
You need to specify 2 jobs and 2 fd's, but you can reuse the filesets.
You need 2 fd's because the catalog is specified there.
