    Tape backup software


    What are current recommendations for this please? I use an Ultrium-4 drive on a server and iSCSI connection from a booted CD to take image backups of all the machines here at home, but dd isn't the best of backup utilities :)

    I can't afford a PetaByte disk array so please don't suggest disk-disk backup.

    Oh yes, I can't afford Symantec BackupExec or similar ... Freeware preferred, reasonably priced shareware also good.

    Thanks

    I looked at that, but sadly the free version doesn't have tape support . The tape version costs €150 for the 1st license (I need at least 4).

    You might have to get past the desire for free and venture into the land of pay-for (multi-computers pack are common). Research for tape-friendly software and do as many of us have done -- get a multi-computer pack license for a program that performs rock-solid, error-free, and the restores indeed -- restore.
