-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi All,
I've been playing quite heavily with Rsnapshot during this last week. The plan is to use Rsnapshot to dive into customer's servers in the middle of the night and take snapshots of their data. It's quite a slick little application that is very easy to set up and even easier to manage once it's running. I really like it, but the problem we're running into is bandwidth. Some of our customers have 100GB or more of data and the best uploads we're seeing is somewhere around 300-500MB an hour. Once we have a full backup we'll be OK because Rsnapshot will only take incrementals, but the first backup is killing us. I've done some really bad math (the only kind I do) and it seems to me that with the type of upload caps that the local ISPs are putting on their lines, that's about the best speed we're going to get. I'm wondering if anyone else in the CLUG is doing any kind of remote backup stuff and may have faced this issue before? I'm not married to Rsnapshop - in fact, we'll go with anything that works so all suggestions are welcome. Thanks!
