Debian and Dell Powervault


mad_php

Recommended Posts

Hello,

 

I have a dell powervault tape backup connected by scsi to my debian server. I can access it ok, using the mt and tar commands, and think i have a backup working through webmin. But im limited as to what i can do with webmin. I'm a complete tape newbie, but was wondernig if there is better software out there to administer my tape backups. Is there a better way to browse and adminisiter my backups on the tape? Can anyone recommend any good software?

 

Thanks

Amanda might be what you are looking for.

bacula is another backup app across networks which might be able to use tapes.
