I've just added up the amount of space required by running estimates
on all my windows jobs. I was a touch should when it totaled up to
just over 1TB. Now this is clearly too much data to synchronise
offsite, so I am seriously considering how to reduce the footprint
of all my servers, because seriously, it's pointless to use all my
bandwith for backups.
Now, using a portable HD, would be find, and I surly would not mind
a weekly round trip to the other side of the planet, so long as I
flew with enough leg room, bandwith, and I could take my GF with me,
that'll be great. (so, I'm basically saying, it's not fine to use a
portable drive!).
I'm come to two conclusions, one that I have to tighten up my file
sets, or make use of Base Jobs
Currently my file sets are
- FileSet {
- Name = CDE-Windows
- Include {
- File = C:/
- File = D:/
- File = E:/
- Options {
- }
- }
- }
So, I'm aware that I'm umm, over doing it at the moment! Which is
why I looked at base jobs. Now, it would be great to no longer
backup the OS, or have any of the OS files in my backup, but I worry
what will happen when my base job expires, will that not make all
the jobs impossible to restore? Any clues, hints, and tips are most
welcome.
