Hi Friends
I tried the back up tool Amanda in a test Solaris machine and its working fine.
But the problem is that we have to upgrade glib for the successfull installation.The glib upgrade, we cannot try out in our existing staging and production enviornment [ It may affect the running application].
Is there any other opensource back up tool [Widely using in industry] ?
Is Bacula is a good option ?
Thanks in advance.
