We have Intel's alphas sparcs and window machines. we have multiple backup sets including a rack mount linux cluster. He will also talk about a "rapid recovery" procedure that we developed for in house use. Kind of a hybrid mix of redhats install, archived / /boot and /var (config data) with AMANDA filling in the /usr and /home data. this procedure is truly rapid, if /usr .....ect is small it could take less than 1 hour. He will not leave anyone disappointed as far as his desire or ability to speak on this subject.
