AFAIK, NexentaStor includes Amanda - which is in my opinion perfect
backup solution. Amanda mailing lists and forums very active and Zamanda
Inc is backing up open source development - so I would bet that Amanda
is what you want long term... NexentaStor needs to integrate Amanda more
deeply, utilizing ZFS capabilities, i.e. unlimited snapshots, clones,
thin provisioning, etc
