I can do a full backup that I archive and incremental rsync every night. Why not if the rate of change in the content it's good. I will look at how much data changes each day. > Message du 04/05/10 à 18h14 > De : "Les Mikesell" > A : backuppc-users@lists.sourceforge.net > Copie à : > Objet : R

250k is plenty for this scenario. We run nightly incrementals with weekly fulls on all of our servers including the 4 remote sites. The 2 slowest of our remotes are 256k up and that is still sufficient pending you don't have alot of data change. On Tue, May 4, 2010 at 9:38 AM, Inno wrote: > It'

It's a very good idea. But with this solution I am forced to do a single full then incrementals. And I'm not sure the speed of upload will be sufficient. And configure BackupPC with : FullPeriod = -1 FullKeepCnt = 1 FullKeepCntMin = 1 FullAgeMax = 90 -- IncrPeriod = 1 IncrKeepCnt = 8 Incr

What I would do is this: Setup backuppc for company A at the company B location Setup backuppc for company B at the company A location That way you will have total failover redundancy with no "lost weeks". So if say Company A "burns" or is robbed, etc you have the backup of the servers at company

I will test it (but I want a full backup every week). We have a connection with 250 KB/s. My goal is not to centralize backups so I wondered if my solution will be good. Imagine if the company burns or HDD breaks. For me it's better to have two HDD (at different locations) with a loss of one we

This is very true. We have 4 remote sites, 2 T1's (1.5megabit up and down) and 2 DSL (1.5megabit down x 256 kilobit up) and have a central backuppc server located in-house that backs up those 4 server and 10 more in house on the local fiber network. The only issue was the initial full on the 2 DSL

Hello, Can you see a problem in this thinking : We have two business building not connected between them. Servers are not the same. I would like outsourcing data. Backups are done on two Ethernet HDD. So I imagined this: Company A - Full backup on Friday night. Incremental backup every day. Comp
