m23 is a free software distribution system (license: GPL), that installs (via network, starting with partitioning and formatting) and administrates (updates, adds / removes software, adds / removes scripts) clients with Debian, (X/K)Ubuntu and LinuxMint. It is used for deployment of Linux clients in schools, institutions and enterprises. The m23 server is controlled via a web interface. A new m23 client can be installed easily in only three steps. Group functions and mass installation tools make managing a vast number of clients comfortable. The integration of existing clients (with .deb-based distributions) into the system is possible, too. Client backup and server backup are included to avoid data loss. With the integrated virtualisation software, m23 can create and manage virtual m23 clients, that run on real m23 clients or the m23 server. Scripts and software packages (for installation on clients) can be created directly from the m23 web interface.

Free virtual appliance to backup and replicate Linux servers and ©VMWare ©ESXi virtual machines from version 5.1 to 8.0. https://33hops.com/xsibackup-app-detailed-installation-instructions.html ©XSIBackup-App connects to multiple Linux or ©ESXi servers and backs VMs & files up to, local disk, NFS, iSCSI, Samba, etc... or to any Linux or ©ESXi server over IP, it just needs the SSH port open. This appliance is based in CentOS 7 and has root access. You can install any available software, including drivers for Amazon S3, Azure, Google Cloud, etc... We have improved speed with regards to the hypervisor service versions, mainly due to more flexible buffering. It follows the same principles and command line arguments as ©XSIBackup-DC. This new approach has many advantages over the software running directly in the Hypervisor OS, as it can backup an unlimited number of servers from a centralized console and you don't need to install anything in the Hypervisor OS

** This project has moved to a new location: http://relax-and-recover.org/ ** Relax-and-Recover (Rear) is the leading Open Source disaster recovery solution, and successor to mkcdrec. It comprises of a modular framework and ready-to-go workflows for many common situations to produce a bootable image and restore from backup using this image. As a benefit, it allows to restore to different hardware and can therefore be used as a migration tool as well. Currently Relax-and-Recover supports various boot media (incl. ISO, PXE, OBDR tape, USB or eSATA storage), a variety of network protocols (incl. sftp, ftp, http, nfs, cifs) as well as a multitude of backup strategies (incl. IBM TSM, HP DataProtector, Symantec NetBackup, EMC NetWorker, Bacula, rsync). Relax-and-Recover was designed to be easy to set up, requires no maintenance and is there to assist when disaster strikes. Its setup-and-forget nature removes any excuse for not having a disaster recovery solution implemented.
