My instinct would be carbon copy cloner, running or rather connecting
to the root account of each of the 6 machines and always backing up to
the same image file. With CCC you can select the folders you want to
back up as opposed to doing the whole disk each time.
Another very good product which would achieve what I think you are
trying to achieve is crashplan pro / enterprise version ( or maybe
even the standard version ) it's free / cheap depending on what you do
with it.

Hi folks,
Wonder if you could help in any way. I’m trying to backup all users
(there are 6 in total) to a storage drive on a server but would like
to be able to do this once they have all been logged off. Work at a
school if you’re wondering why that is and we’d like to run
backups overnight rather than effect their usage in the day.
We need something that is as descrete as possible to doesn’t interfe
re with the users once they’re logged in.
Does anyone know of any solutions? We’ve tried Carbon Copy but that
appears user specific. Also tried Time Machine but that seems really
unstable when backing up to our drobo attached to the mac server –
please shout at me if this shouldn’t be the case!
Thanks very much,
Matt
