I have one client, 2 buildings, 2 BackupPC servers, 90+ hosts 90% WinXP, a few Server2000/2003 boxes some Win2k. Using the shadow copy setup/script to do backups while they work, daily. One annoying thing was the daily calls about "my computer is really slow"... which it is during the dump on some units. I've setup in those shadow copy scripts to have a "net send" message pop up at the beginning and end, stating the reason for the slowness and when it will end. No more calls. Other than that, it's saved my butt several times. Daily incrementals, weekly fulls. They're 2 vms running in Xen (soon to switch to KVM), with images of those exported occasionally. If backuppc were a girl, it'd be sexy.

I'd like to roll it out into production, but I wanted to know, are there any businesses or government entities using BackupPC in live environments? Can you give a range of employees or servers you are backing up? Data sizes you are backing up? How well do you like BackupPC for backing up your mission critical data? ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- -- Come build with us!
