After picking up a new little streamer, I was wondering how to do
backups of our systems ... I will be setting up a dedicated server with
Box Backup to do the daily backups ... now I'm thinking about whether to
backup (for off-site storage) the original machines via the network to
tape, or alternatively store the BB directories to tape ... the latter
will probably be more to store, due to the 50% RAID5 overhead ... also,
I don't know how consistent the data structures are ... (don't want to
stop the bb server for the backup ...)
How do you folks handle that?
Tnx, -gg
