[nflug] Open File Backup

[Justin Bennett]

Hello All,

    I'm looking for a backup product that will allow me to backup files 
that are currently in use, namely Lotus notes databases on a Domino 
server running Linux. Traditionally I've been a full backup with TAR 
type of guy, I don't have so much data where I've had to go incremental 
(yet).
    I don't like the hassle of incremental backups, having to maintain a 
database of tapes, ect. I like to throw it to a tape with tar, and know 
it's there and that tape will work anywhere. However in my experience 
Tar doesn't do so hot when the file is being changed while it's being 
backed up. :)

    With that said I need a solution that will allow me to do a full 
file system backup that has open file protection, however I'm looking 
for something simple, I'm not looking to get into the backend database 
scenario if I don't have to.

Thanks
Justin
