[Xen-users] Backup running Windows machines - redundancy

[Paul PISCUC <paul.piscuc@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

I know that there are a lot of tools to successfully backup windows guest machine, using samba shares, dd, rsync etc. They all work, but they don't solve one problem: redundancy. 

In my current setup, backups are done using LVM snapshots, and rsync over the network. The problem is that the rsync is not incremental, and every time a new copy of the entire lv is sent to the backup server. I could mount on the Dom0 the disk of the windows guest, and send the files, but the restore process doesn't work.

Do you know/use other method to do incremental backups for Windows machines, that is more reliable or safer than this one?

Thanks alot.

Paul Piscuc
