LBackup Description

Simple backup system, aimed at systems administrators who require reliable backups LBackup is a simple backup system, aimed at systems administrators who require reliable backups with minimum fuss. LBackup is configured with configuration files and the backup is started from the command line.The current version of LBackup has been tested for over 2 years. Although this is pre-release beta software, it is considered to be stable. LBackup is not intended for large scale deployment, unless you are using a file management tool to manage the configuration files. LBackup nothing more than a front end to RSync. Therefore if your installation of Rsync will not preserve meta data required by your backup policy, then LBackup will not fix this for you. Instead you will need to install or compile a copy of RSync on or for your system which preserves the meta data required by your backup policy. Here are some key features of "LBackup": · Designed for User Data Backup · Full Backup Tree · Encrypted Backups (Transport and Storage) · Email Reports · Hard Links (Saving Space) · RSync Back-end (Reliable) · Pre and Post Actions (such as mounting and un-mounting volumes) · Automation What's New in This Release: · Focuses on reliability and bug fixes.

This script handles synchronization of the sparse bundle to a remote server once the local backup has completed and the disk image has been unmounted. · Various reliability enhancements. · Many new pre and post action scripts · Bug fixes.
