I wish there were a way to skip over a client that begins having
troubles after a backup has begun. I have a client machine that
sometimes stops responding while a backup of it is running (wish I
could fix it, but it's not my machine!). At that point, my backup
script stops and doesn't advance.
Perhaps the process could queue the files in 650MB (or whatever) size
chunks which could then be copied to tape as soon as the first one on
the disk is complete. If the tape drive ran faster than the system
could fetch the data from the clients, you could simply increase the
number of backup
Ben,
It is a limit with one volume. Having more files than that across
multiple volumes (as we currently do) is not a problem.

May I add one other drive to this list? What does anyone here think of this
drive from OnStream (http://www.onstream.com)? Other than having a few

well, I just hadn't seen much mention here in the time I've been
