Dear All,

I've just joined this list, and am trying to understand the state of  
play with using free backup solutions for ZFS, specifically on a Sun  
x4500.

The x4500 we have is used as a file store, serving clients using NFS  
only.

I'm handling the issue of recovery of accidentally deleted files by  
using daily rolling snapshots.  I'm also looking for a solution for  
making complete backups (from snapshot) to tape.  Optimistically, I'm  
hoping to find something that is both reliable and free :-)

 From what I've read on the net, it seems that amanda may not be up to  
it, and I've not really found anything about whether bacula is up to  
it either.  Another option is to see if it is possible to stream "zfs  
send" to tape in a way that is reliable enough to depend upon.

Does anyone here have experience of this with multi-TB filesystems and  
any of these solutions that they'd be willing to share with me please?

Thanks,

Anna
