How do you configure your clients to make sure that not all 250 clients are being backed up at the same time, IE how are you distributing the load? I am currently planning to evaluete backuppc to back up about the same amount of clients and I am a little "nervous" of the peak load if I am not capable of distributing the load over the full working day (clients are mainly labtops…) - TvEw ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Moblin Your Move Developer's challenge Build the coolest Linux based applications with Moblin SDK & win great prizes Grand prize is a trip for two to an Open Source event anywhere in the world http://moblin-contest.org/redirect.php?banner_id=100&url=/ _______________________________________________ BackupPC-users mailing list BackupPC-users@lists.sourceforge.net List: https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/backuppc-users Wiki: http://backuppc.wiki.sourceforge.net Project: http://backuppc.sourceforge.net/
