Mandi! Phil Stracchino In chel di` si favelave... > Is there a reason you can't simply back up /Storage?
Oh, simple: it is 80+TB of (uncompressable) data, so a full can cost (opn a single LTO9 tape) some weeks of backup... and the same tape is needed to do some other day-by-day backups. So my idea was to do a 'incremental fileset' backup, adding to fileset the folders one by one, to reduce backup time to a decent amount (i can stop day-by-day backup by some days, if needed). Thanks for all other suggestions. I'm thinking on that: + define a 'full' pool, with a job and a fileset with 'Ignore FileSet Changes = yes' where add all the exams directory apart the current one when the archive backup get done: + create a 'incremental' pool where doing incremental backups of all the exam folder including current (we are thinking about one a month). when a new exam folder get created: + clean all jobs on 'incremental' pool and do an incremental on the 'full' pool, so we have the just archived exam folder not scattered on dozen of incremental...
