Have a look at Amanda. The good thing is its open source and 
under-the-hood it uses the basic Linux programs like tar or dump to do 
the backup, meaning its easy to do restores even when you don't have 
indexes. The bad thing is there's no GUI for it and setting it up first 
time can be a little bit complicated, but once you get it setup its very 
reliable.
