That's
what I use. It's great, lots of bells and whistles, backs up nearly every
platform. Completely automated, GUI interface, which will run on any
client or the backup server. Which is cool since you don't have worry
about X sessions clogging up your pipes. Backs up and restores across
hosts, filesystems, etc. I backup 20 Linux servers and 10 Solaris
servers. Good stuff. It is very expensive though, but as far as I'm
concerned not nearly as expensive as not having good reliable
backups...

I
believe veritas netbackup will do what you're looking for. It's very
expensive. I've used it at two jobs and was very happy with it.
Definitely automted. Can-do over the network

Hi,
We have recently expanded our
network rather quickly and have added 5 RedHat 9 servers to our single Mac
XServe Server.
We used to use a piece of
software for managing network backups called Retrospect, which worked
perfectly. But they don't seem to have any software for
Linux.
What I am hoping is that someone
can recommend a piece of software I can use to automate and remotely manage
the backup of all six servers, preferably using a GUI
interface.
Retrospect worked in such a way
that you installed client software on each machine, and then install a
single server with the control software. Using this method, you did not have
to set up any kind of file sharing etc as the client software would back
itself up onto the server. It could be automated and I would get error
messages from both the clients and the servers if a client had not checked
in for its regular backup.
It would be ideal if I could get
something similar, but it is not essential. The only essential features are
that its automated and manageable over a network.
Thanks in
advance.
