Re: Time Machine as a Backup for the server



From: Craig Kabis <email@hidden>

TimeMachine as a server grade backup.
Thanks Steve!  I need a good laugh this morning.

Here is another option.
CrashPlan PRO Server

Thanks, Craig! I need a good laugh this morning, as well.

The basic problem is that you can't do a quiescent backup of a running system.

It seems to me that either Time Machine or CrashPlan are adequate for "snapshot" backups that may be self-inconsistent, and that neither of these are adequate for backups with full referential integrity.
