Recommendations for Implementation
2003-05-04 23:58:48
we are currently in the process of moving our NT backend to a samba PDC/BDC
authentication model. The final piece for complete integration is backup
strategy.
I was wondering if I outline our requirements, if someone with a similar
situation (or good insight) could forward me to a howto or any documentation
that can make the rollout better.
We have 10 branch locations each serviced by approximately 1/2 T-1. The
data stored at each location varies from 5GB to 15GB. We currently use
Veritas Backup-Exec on a single machine with 4 Quantum DLT drives (20/40GB).
Jobs typically run simulataneousy, and some jobs take 30 hours some take 60
hours (dependent on backup size)
My questions are:
1 - does amanda handle simultaneous tape backups?
2 - is there a better backup scheme we can employee?
3 - what are the performance (compression/time) benchmarks for amanda as
compared to other backup agents (ie backup-Exec)?
Any insight on this would help me out tremendously.
Thanks
Chris McKeever
