Hi all what about these approaches: - use lvm for backuppc pool, and schedule some kind of incremental dd of the device by taking a snapshot of the lvm volume - use coda or other replicating filesystem on the backuppc pool? could be? - use some dedicated storage that to hardware replication (like datadomain) any opinion is very appreciated..
