progress. It would be nice if we had a progress screen to show
RE: Holding disk
This is something that can be done now; just run one backup to the holding disk, then
another from that to tape.
If this two-step process was managed by Retrospect (rather than being done with two
scripts) it would still have to copy and verify on each pass so there
Since it seems we're on the subject of feature requests, speeds of backups
over network to tape and so on, here's what I'd like to see added to
Retrospect. I'll be talking about tapes because that's what I use, but I'm
