I have been using Time Machine as a backup on a few servers for about 6 months with no issues. It's very handy for restoring files to user homes. If a user deletes a file that was there an hour ago I can very easily get it back. Depending on your backup up needs and the services that your server is running I think Time Machine is a very good reliable option.

Our HP Tape backup failed, it can no longer read-write to tape. I was thinking a faster method would be to use TimeMachine as a server grade backup.
Wondering about the reliability, rotation of media (two separate drives) etc.

Thoughts?
