[OmniOS-discuss] ndmp backups what software are you using?

[Oliver Weinmann]

Hi,

Sorry I didn't mean to have support on bareos backup. I have already asked this question on their mailinglist. I just wanted to know if users are doing ndmp backups and what software they are using.

<< Traditional archive programs like 'tar' and 'find+cpio' would produce a result similar to what you are seeing from bareos by default. >>

Thanks for this tip. I'm doing dump. I will now try tar instead. :)

It seems like you are asking us a question about Bareos and not OmniOS.  Does Bareos have a user support forum or mailing list where you can ask your question?

Each zfs filesystem mountpoint will behave the same as if a traditional filesystem was mounted to that path.

Traditional archive programs like 'tar' and 'find+cpio' would produce a result similar to what you are seeing from bareos by default.
