[BackupPC-users] BackupPC is awesome

Hi all,

Just wanted to point out how great backuppc is.

I have one backuppc system configured to backup daily, and never expire a backup.

# hosts 13
# Full backups 1243
# Incremental backups 7417

Oldest backup 2223.7 days old (backup #0, still not retired)

Uncompressed pool:
- Pool is 357.46GB comprising 960280 files and 4369 directories (as of 2012-09-18 10:05),
- Pool hashing gives 152 repeated files with longest chain 7,
- Nightly cleanup removed 0 files of size 0.00GB (around 2012-09-18 10:05),
Compressed pool:
- Pool is 762.53GB comprising 4102756 files and 4369 directories (as of 2012-09-18 10:40),
- Pool hashing gives 2129 repeated files with longest chain 102,
- Nightly cleanup removed 0 files of size 0.00GB (around 2012-09-18 10:40),
Pool file system was recently at 22% (2012-09-19 02:46), today's max is 22% (2012-09-18 10:00) and yesterday's max was 22%.

While this isn't backing up huge amounts of data, it means we have pretty much every version (one per day usually), of every file, ever stored on any of the servers.

In case people are interested, currently using 5 x 2TB HDD's in RAID6 with reiserfs (yes, back then it really was a great solution, and I guess it still works).

I just wanted to put out there, that backuppc can work really well at backing up, and archiving data.

Regards,
Adam
