I am just interested what other people use and if they found it on the SUSE Linux Distribution. The reason I ask is because I have a feeling that there is not good backup-script available om SUSE Linux.
my answer was to say such a script don't exist, suse or not suse...
My opinion is that there are several scripts out there, backup2l being one of them, for the standard home PC. Yet none of them are on the SUSE Linux distribution. Not perfect scripts, but good scripts. If I compare it to the rest of tools available and look at the importance of backups (and recovery) I think it to be strange there are no better backup tools on SUSE Linux available.
I tried dozens of scripts, not one was good at recovery time...
I had the "luck" to test the recovery of backup2l and it worked great. Both for a single file as for a whole directory. You have a good point. Recovery is more important then backup.
the only way I keep using is writing cd/dvd (directly readable). I use others things also, but with little luck, so...
How do you do that? Do you use a script, or do you just copy stuff there?
and I keep a tree with a size consistent with the support size
