Let me suggest another idea: |
| 7 |
|
| 8 |
Put a venti on the remote machine and push the tree to be backed |
| 9 |
up with vac. Never think about maintaining incremental backups |
| 10 |
anymore - just pull in the stuff, and venti will store equal |
| 11 |
data blocks only once. All you now have to do is to put the |
| 12 |
root score (printed out by vac) into some safe place. |
| 13 |
You can even directly mount the backup via vacfs :) |
