I have used Bacula for a year or so backing up a Linux laptop, Windows XP professional laptop and the Linux server where Bacula runs all to a single partition. I am looking into a software raid 5 system, can't afford a hardware raid system. I want to preserve all required files externally to the raid setup so if anything happens to the raid system I can rebuild it and my backups and still access my data. I know I'm getting paranoid here but got burned badly a few years back, wasn't using Bacula at the time . The list I have so far is: All configuration files, from server and clients The MYSQL database, which is backed up after every Bacula run. Anything else I should looking at. Dave. |

I personally am getting those data (clients configs and catalog dump) and sending them to an account at Dropbox (they have a command line interface). If there are any more data to backup from Bacula it self besides those two, I'd like to know too... 2011/2/27 David Clements <dav...@td...> > I have used Bacula for a year or so backing up a Linux laptop, Windows > XP professional laptop and the Linux server where Bacula runs all to a > single partition. > > I am looking into a software raid 5 system, can't afford a hardware raid > system.

How secure is dropbox? Can they decode your data? -- Dan Langille - http://langille.org/ |
