I am sure that it was asked before, but I was not able to find satisfying answer on the net. 1. How can I have different TopDir assigned to different client computers. 2. How can I have different bac
Hi Oz, Read on... No, you can't. Tell us more about what problem you are trying to solve instead. Create an extra host in backuppc that points to the same client machine. But why would you want to do
Oz, Try multiple implementations of BackupPC server! Even one 'big backup server' and several 'virtual servers' to handle special needs. For most clients, I agree, multiple schedules are not needed,
Thanks for responding: Regarding the first issue. I have a limited backup space in my server. On the other had I have disk space in some clients that is wasted. Thus I was hopping to backup one clien
You're welcome. One of the fundamental principles of backuppc is that a file with a certain content is (in general) only stored once, regardless of how many times and where such a file occurs in the
This of course means that you must use for example LVM or some other solution to combine several disks and be able to use them in ONE SINGLE filesystem. /Martin -- This SF.Net email is sponsored by t
I don't know what happened to it, but at one time there was development being done on a 'distributed file system', where the data was 'raided' across many systems, so if some of the systems 'went awa

AFAIK this problem is peculiar to smbclient, so if you use rsync it should behave normally. -- Massimiliano Masserelli -- Greatness is a transitory experience. It is never consistent. -- This SF.Net
Hi Maouro, I can think of several options: 1) Replace your 500GB disks with 1TB disks instead. That would buy you some time. 2) Use a couple of internal disks combined with LVM. To have an off-site c
