what I ended up doing when I ran into this issue, was breaking the backup into parts (via rsync excludes), then gradually making the amount of data excluded smaller and smaller. It did end up taking months to go through the whole process tho; since they didn't want backups running during the day. This was to back up 80GB or so, moving it over a T1. more data, smaller pipes, or greater urgency will of course make this much less attractive. -- Carl Soderstrom Systems Administrator Real-Time Enterprises www.real-time.com ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.
