Hi List,
Apologies if this has been asked before, cant seem to find a good way of
searching through the archives and in the search results a best practice way
of doing this:
We have a backuppc server that has been running for more than a year
unmaintained. Since then, people have come and gone, the network
infrastructure has changed and all the current hosts are basically null and
void bar a few of them. What I am wondering is, is there any way to archive
these backups into say 1 archive and compress the hell out of it. The
server is currently setup to run on a static IP system, where I want to
change that to use hostnames as the majority of people run off laptops and
use DHCP for ease of use. I could just leave the old backups there, but it
would seem cluttered and there would be a lot of hosts that are not being
backed up anymore.
Any advice on how to proceed going further?
I am a relative newbie to backuppc, so please excuse any stupid questions :)
Many thanks
Ian
