If you have a real need to have a consistent snapshot of all the filesystems at one point in time you'll probably need support from the target filesystems to do the snapshot locally (LVM, VSS, zfs, etc.) and let backuppc back up the snapshots. -- Les Mikesell lesmikes...@gmail.com -- The modern datacenter depends on network connectivity to access resources and provide services.

Exactly! 8-) What kind of hardware and infrastructure would you actually need to perform a backup on twenty hosts at once, insofar, as this is quantifiable? -- /Sorin smime.p7s Description: S/MIME cryptographic signature -- The modern datacenter depends on network connectivity to access resources and provide services.

But you may want to reconsider backing up all your twenty hosts at once. Are you sure your network and backup server can handle that amount of load? Normally one sets the queue to handle two to four hosts at once. -- /Sorin smime.p7s Description: S/MIME cryptographic signature -- The modern datacenter depends on network connectivity to access resources and provide services.

Re: [BackupPC-users] backup for all of the hosts at certain pointof time
You need to adjust the MaxBackups number if you really want to backup all 20. But increasing this value to 20 will probably slow down backups (slower than backing them up 2 or 4 at a time).
