Re: [PLUG] Backup drive filling up


=>
=> Out of curiosity, does anyone actually go back to backups that old to
=> restore something? The only time I've needed prior versions of anything,
=> or something deleted from the current copy, it's been code under version
=> control.
=>
=> I purge my rdiff-backup deltas whenever I get low on space on the backup
=> drive (so I only have older stuff if I haven't been making many changes
=> recently).

   I use Bacula, and I have anything older than a few months purged
automatically as needed.
