You can backup things on hard disks too with amanda.. In the documentation look for "Holding Disk". If i remenber you can configure amanda to make an image of the backup that is going to be dumped to the tape. But it can be configured to only make the image on the disk. Augusto..

Amanda (on top of gnutar) rocks. (www.amanda.org) freeware, excellent help on their mailinglist. I've got about 1T of disks (spread out over 2 offices 1 here, 1 in the UK) using amanda, and have had no reason to complain (yet ;) ) )

Can amanda back up to a second disk instead of to a tape? Considering the price of hard drives these days, we'd really like to use disks here instead of tapes. At once point I thought I saw that Amanda supported that, but when I look on it's web site, I can't find any references to support for disk backup.
