Description

Flexbackup is a flexible backup tool.

Features: o Easy to configure o Uses dump, afio, GNU tar, cpio, star, pax, or zip archivers o Full and numbered levels of incremental backup (acts like "dump") o Compression and buffering options for all backup types o Does remote filesystems (over rsh/ssh; no special service) o Package delta mode can backup files not owned by rpm, or owned+changed files. o Writes to tapes, on-disk archive files, or on-disk directory trees o Keeps a table of contents so you know what archives are on each tape o Nice log files

Software needed: o perl o fileutils, findutils (a "find" capable of using the -regex switch) o one or more of dump/restore, afio, GNU tar, star, pax, cpio, zip o mt (if using tapes) o gzip, bzip2, lzop, or compress (optional) o buffer (optional) [needs patches or recompile for 2+GB file support]
