Hi Rainer,
I am Sumesh from R&D dept of a System Integrator OEM company HCL
Infosystems Ltd
in INDIA.We are in the way of offering a reliable and cheap or free backup
solution in a
Linux-Windows enviornment.We have found AMANDA will definitely help us.We
are looking for a solution of backup to a tape which is attached to server
and multiple linux and windows clients
in the network and to take backup at scheduled interval.As I am new to this
field your kind help
will be highly appreciated.
Please note the following points.
1)We are going to use RedHat Linux 7.2 .I have found AMANDA is in-built with
RH 7.2
But I could not find any document which tells what extra configuration has
to be done
for a simple setup.Please guide me to any path of documentation for this
or send me the steps
of configuration for a simple backup with One tape server and 2 clients
(one-Linux ,another-
Windows 2000) in network for daily backup at evening 5 .00pm.
2)Does AMANDA support incremental backup?
3)What type of backup AMANDA does? Image backup or normal backup?
4)Destination can be hard disk in AMANDA instead of tape?
5)Please give me documents which tells How to configure ,how to run for
above explained setup.
6)Does AMANDA have disaster recovery option?
7)Does AMANDA support Exabyte VXA-1 tape drive?
Your earliest help would be highly appreciated.
Thanks&Regards,
