Previously I have used a script I have written that uses rsync and hard links to do Yearly, months, hourly and 15 minute backups. I am now setting up a system for another client that uses a NFS (with a NAS). I have looked at a lot of different backup systems and non of them give me what I want without using lots of disk space. They all require keeping at least 2 full backups.
So I am hoping Bacula will do what i want. Have looked at the documentation a bit and it seems promising but thought it was worth checking with those who use it in anger.
So my requirements are - Use NFS to hold backups
- Store yearly backups indefinably
- Store monthly backups for a year
- Store daily backups for a month
- Story hourly backups for a day
- Be very efficient with backup storage. i.e. only hold each file (version of file once). I understand the catalog will use space but dont want the actual data repeated.
