Hi Corey,
my interests are the same: I have three separate backup servers in three
different locations, so it's also no option to have a single filesystem
for backups. It would be great to be able to administer these backp
servers with one interface (I now modified the CGIs to show the location
My needs are somewhat different. I've got seperate backup servers
because I need the space. I've currently got 23T of available storage,
spread across 8 servers and backing up close to 30T of data. There's no
way I can have my pool on a single filesystem.
I'm mainly interested in administeri
David. I have been thinking a lot about this as i have an interesting setup
that multiple backup servers would be usefull for as well as a cluster
filesystem with redundancy.
I would like to have 1 cluster filesystem with 3 backup server attached to
it. I have 3 'main' sites and20 satelites and
My employer would even go so far as to be willing to contribute to a bounty for
this. By and large I know that such isn't generally of interest to Craig, but
don't know how else to help push gthe development of such an addition.

I second some level of modification for mulitserver environments or "clustered"
backup servers with common SAN/NAS storage. Then have a primary backup machine
and slaves so that all backups are managed by the master and it assignes the
job to the appropriate cluster member which may be itself.
Has anybody seen or is anybody interested in developing a multiple
server interface for BackupPC?
I've currently got 8 backup servers running, and although I've got a
back-end system for tracking where client machines are backed up, a
single CGI interface that managed them all would be ideal.
I'd love to be able to flush the background queue without restarting
BackupPC. When I need to restore files, I usually need to do it NOW and
when a full load of backups are running, the server is usually running
pretty hard.
