I don't know much about Arkeia, but a quick note: unless you're really
hard-up for tapes, or just have disgusting amounts of data to backup, I
would go with differentials instead of incrementals. Who wants to have to
juggle 7 tapes if the server goes kaplowee on saturday and your full backups
happen on sunday? :(
But these are just comments from a somewhat inexperienced backup admin...

Subject: [techtalk] Back up Newbie
Hi,
I need some help in the backup arena. Situation: we have several new Linux
servers running that I would like to back up. I have both a CD Writer and a
Tape Drive. I would like to do a complete back up of each server on a weekly
basis and daily incremental backups , so that if I wipe a server I can
totally restore it. Any pointers in the right direction would be
appreciated. I have the free version of Arkeia's back up SW.
TIA,
Davida
