I second some level of modification for mulitserver environments or "clustered" backup servers with common SAN/NAS storage. Then have a primary backup machine and slaves so that all backups are managed by the master and it assignes the job to the appropriate cluster member which may be itself.
I would much rather have a master/slave cluster environment than just an interface that included a number of machines. This does imply some change to the storage mechanism to allow multiple users concurrent access to the same fileset or the use of some cluster filesystem. I know a lot of people like simplicity but there is.a certain level of complexoty neccessary for backuppc to reach the next level.

Has anybody seen or is anybody interested in developing a multiple server interface for BackupPC? I've currently got 8 backup servers running, and although I've got a back-end system for tracking where client machines are backed up, a single CGI interface that managed them all would be ideal. Thoughts? -- Thank you, Corey Baldwin Mojohost.. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.
