Hi all

what about these approaches:

- use lvm for backuppc pool, and schedule some kind of incremental dd of
the device by taking a snapshot of the lvm volume

- use coda or other replicating filesystem on the backuppc pool? could
be?

- use some dedicated storage that to hardware replication (like
datadomain)

any opinion is very appreciated..
