BackupPC is great at what it does, backing up files, which is why I use it. As my original post states, am aware that backuppc is not designed to achieve my offsite-ready-to-use-most-recent-copy which is why I tried the fuse module and was asking more for suggestions or alternatives to the module rather than how backuppc can (can't) do this. Perhaps I shouldn't have used the term snapshot either because of the obvious confusion with lvm snapshots and the like but was instead referring to a like for like copy of my live environment. Sorry for the confusion :(
Yes, I could just take the backup directly from the individual servers, and by the looks of things it may be my only option. I was rather hoping for perhaps another fuse module alternative or something that would still allow me to keep everything centralised. I really don't want to have backup scripts running on every server if I can help it. but.... If I must I must. If only that fuse module would work it would solve all my problems... +---------------------------------------------------------------------- |This was sent by [email protected] via Backup Central. |Forward SPAM to [email protected]. +---------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Live Security Virtual Conference Exclusive live event will cover all the ways today's security and threat landscape has changed and how IT managers can respond.
