FWIW, I've tried Amanda, and really hated it. It seems to be mature and well
done, but I was simply unable to contort my mind to think like the Amanda
developers seem to. As far as I could tell, Bacula is just as powerful and a lot
more understandable. At least, that's how it struck me.

Thanks for your reply Lamont,
unfortunately, there is no easy way I can migrate to LVM my virtual
machines, as it's a production server, with no spare partitions right
now. Which kind of backup software are you referring to? We have been
using backup PC for a while, and are pretty happy with that piece of
software. Will it make the work?
(Please, reply to the whole list. Thanks :) ).
I haven't used backup PC, so I can not comment on it.
I was thinking of Amanda (for an open source choice) or TapeWare (looks like
they changed to name to Backup Standard) [ http://www.yosemitetech.com/ ] for
the best commercial backup software I have personally used.
