I'm popping into this thread because I'm also running "outsourced backups" (me calling them "remote backups"). I'm successfully running a backuppc server at my office, which is backing up 8 remote servers for 8 different customers. I'm doing 1 FULL and subsequential 6 INCR. Here some config details: (FullPeriod=6.97, FullKeeCnt=4, FullKeepCntMin=1, FullAgeMax=90) (IncrPeriod=0.97, IncrKeepCnt=24, IncKeepCntMin=1, IncrAgeMax=30, IncrLevels=1) I'm pretty satisfied with this setup, but still I'd like to have some suggestions for eventually optimise transfer times or other things that would help "doing better". What can you people suggest? Les, do you have some specific advices? I can tell you that I'd like to lower some data transfer durations for at least two of my remote hosts (they sit on slightly slower DSL): look at http://yfrog.com/0bbackuppcpoltij Any suggestion will be appreciated.
