[opensuse] Wich BackUp Tool?
Hi all, I am in the need to back up the whole /user and I would like to do this by differential backup every night. My intended retain schema is 7days, 4 weeks and 12 months. On sunday I would run a full one (and keep it for 4 weeks) and every day I want to run a differential backup. Every Month I want to run a full backup too (and keep it for 12 months) Do you have any suggestion about this? I would like to have an handy too to do this...

Don't do differentials. Do a "level 0" (which is to say, a full backup) every Sunday Then do a "level 5" backup the rest of the days. That way, to do a complete restoration, your, you only have to do this: Restore Sunday's full backup (Level 0) Restore yesterday's level 5 The problem with differential backups is this Suppose you have a problem on Friday. To get a correct restoration, you have to do the following: Restore Sunday's full backup Restore Monday's differential Restore Tuesday's differential Restore Wednesday's differential Restore Thursday's differential Now, suppose, for some reason, that Tuesday's backup has an error on it....now you're screwed.
Do you have any suggestion about this?
See above.
I would like to have an handy too to do this...
Thank You...
