What are people recommending for whole system backups for macs?
Must be able to do the whole system, with exclusions, silently in
the background, with low enough priority that users don't complain
about resource hogging. Must be able to save backups across the
network onto a system which is not OSX server.
I like bacula. You can encrypt over transport (TLS) and encrypt file
contents (though not metadata) to storage. I use it for OS X, Linux,
and Windows. Exclusions are easy, though they have to be specified in
the server config not via a special file on the client.
I usually run backups at night, so I can't provide data about resource
hogging. Also, I don't aim for bare-metal recovery, just restoration
of data and third-party apps.
