Performing Centralized Concurrent Backups With Amanda

Overview There are a number of enterprise tape backup solutions, such as Sun StorEdge Enterprise Backup Software, VERITAS NetBackup, and LEGATO NetWorker, geared toward larger corporations. Many sites, especially smaller ones, don't wish to pay the license fees that some of these solutions command. For those smaller sites that want something free yet flexible, Amanda, The Advanced Maryland Automatic Network Disk Archiver, can be an excellent choice. Amanda is a collection of C programs designed to run automated centralized concurrent backups using the vendor's dump software (ufsdump in the case of the Solaris OS), GNU tar, and SAMBA.
