I have a number of Linux clients that need to be backed up and that we 
can't/won't put the Netbackup client software on.

To solve the problem we Rsync the data via ssh to the Solaris master. Then we 
can put the data to tape when a window opens.

Rsync is very fast as an added bonus.

Subject: [Veritas-bu] Linux Clients


One of my clients is getting ready to install a linux client solution and have 
just been informed that there is a 2GB file size limit with the NBU Linux 
Client Software.

Have any of you run into this, and if so, have you figured out a work-around?

Is it based on a particular filesystem that you use with Linux?

They will be using XFS and EXT3.

Thanks
David
