Hi, I have a similar problem and I would really like to have some advice.
I have several clients which are generally orthogonal (files in one group will not be found on the other). I am backing up to removable media (eSATA disks) rotating the disks for added security. I have a set of identical 500GB external disks. Up to now I backed up just inserting the disk and letting backuppc take over, then I replace the disk with another and, next time I have another backup on the other disk of the set. If no disk is inserted the scheduled backup is simply skipped because the mount-point directory is not writable by backuppc. So far so good. Now my total backup amount exceeds 500GB. I tried setting two different TopDirs (for different, orthogonal sets of clients), but that, as you very well know, fails. I do *not* want to have LVM, since that would mean a big hassle using removable drives! What is the "recommended" way to achieve this?
