Yeah, unless something went wrong, you'd have the old stuff
Hi All,
I am using a HP Colorado 14Gig tape drive unit for backup. I do not want
bells or whistles on backup progs, so I am writing a simple perl script to
run backup for me.
However, if I have a system crash, hard drive or similar, and are prepared to
reinstall the OS (Mandrake 8), what OS

Need some advice,
If possible could someone give me the lowdown on a tape device, the one I'm
looking at is located at Linux Mall
its a 20/40GB tape device called Imation SLR7. the manufacturer is tandberg.
the linux mall part # is 03331, its going for $48.00 the picture is of the
tape drive

About Arkeia, post your question on the arkeia-userlist

I use arkeia to backup 2 NT and 3 linux machines, that works fine. I
haven't tried more than that though.
Hope that helps

Greetings, all.
I have a couple of questions about backups. My company is looking into
setting up a linux file server / backup server to replace the current NT
based backup server and NFS based file server. Here are my questions.
First, we're looking at using Arkeia as the software. Anyone have

You can always backup several things on the same tape, whatever
the utility knows how to do, by using the "non-rewinding" device
(look for a device whose name begins with "n").
By the way, you mailer i
Can I use "dump" to backup more than one file system to the same tape?
The books I have on Linux barely touch the subject of tape backups. Does
anyone know of a good reference book or website?

I've written a perl program to handle my tape backups and it isn't quite
working the way I want it to. I tried a program called flexbackup and
that didn't work the way I wanted it to either.
Can anyone suggest a good tape backup program (console) that will work
well for me? I've got a SCSI 10/2

Hi, I'm trying ( unsucessfully ) to get my Colorodo T-3000 to work under linux.
I have read a number of how-tos, but am a little lost in trying to configure it under
/etc/fstab. Most of the how-to's I have found have dealt with inserting ftape in the
kernal.
Ftape seems to be present on my MDK 6
Has anyone used the Sony "Superstation" 10 GB backup system with Linux? It's
a paralell port item, so I suppose you'd have to set it up much the same way
one sets up a paralell port ZIP drive, but since it's a tape backup, would
you mount it differently? Does anyone know if there's a SCSI version
