First, backups are nightly compressed and same files are hardlinked, so keeping a looong history is not a problem at all (AFA you have enough free inodes; I's recommend XFS as the reception FS); 2nd, you can trigger another backup (or restore) whenever you want, 3rd if you have users, they can also trigger a backup/restore when needed from the http(s) backuppc interface, 4th as backups are presented as a tree which goes down to the file level, you can just B/R one file at a time if needed. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
