Ok, I clearly see your point and value it as a wise thing to do when you only have BPC as a safety net. > Your hypothetical educated user […] Well, this is relatively different as BPC is shot over night once per 24Hrs. In fact, they only use it for former docs they mess with; current ones, wrecked during the same day must be addressed by one admin, as they must be extracted from an hourly FS snapshot. But surprisingly, this is a very rare operation; which may be tied to the fact that admins interventions are strictly limited to the morning, no matter what (except servers breakdown.) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Check out the vibrant tech community on one of the world's most engaging tech sites, Slashdot.org! http://sdm.link/slashdot _______________________________________________ BackupPC-users mailing list BackupPC-users@lists.sourceforge.net List: https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/backuppc-users Wiki: http://backuppc.wiki.sourceforge.net Project: http://backuppc.sourceforge.net/
