welcome newbie,
can someone sugest nice script for making tar arcives with given
size from given folder, presuming that data in folder is more than
given volume size; that volumes must be independet form each other
(no file spliting); that volume name is "smart" (e.g. vol1.tar;
vol2.tar vol3.tar; ...)
maybe I'm thinking in the wrong direction, then please enlighten me
:)
the idea is to make tar arcives for storing to dvd, except storing
will be done once in a month, but archiving should be perfomed more
or less every night. so there will be hard copy and daily backup.
Have a look at the following:

It deals with making cd backups but you may be able to tweak it.
