Hi all,
I am building a new freebsd fileserver to use for backups, will be using 2
disk raid mirroring in a HP microserver n40l.
I have gone through some of the documentation and would like to know what
file systems to choose.
According to the docs, ufs is suggested for the system partitions but

Hello
Would it be safe to use a FreeBSD + ZFS based machine to build
a backups server to store sensitive data ?
In a word is FreeBSD + ZFS stable and mature ?
Thanks

Yes.
But do it with a machine with a lot of memory and run 64bit.

That's a regular theological debate round here, and some people will say
yes, and others an emphatic

Hi folks,
I'm expecting to receive two harddisks which I've
bought to put in a old pc to act as backup server. Now
I'm planning it all and got stuck because of the

choices:
a) install a pure freebsd 6.1 box with geom/geli
capabilities

I need opinions on reliability and speed.

But... Amanda would not be a great choice because it's really a
backup system and you'd end up having to write scripts to restore from
dump files created by Amanda to the backup server filesystem. If you're
going to that trouble, it would be easier to use rsync.

No problem. Set up a cron job on your machine behind it's firewall,
which does something like:
1 1 * * *
Or even just create the tars on the machines nightly and have my box
just go in and download them?
