Project Description

storeBackup is a backup utility that stores files on other disks. It's able to compress data, and recognize copying and moving of files and directories (deduplication), and unifies the advantages of traditional full and incremental backups. It can handle big image files with block-wise changes efficiently. Depending on its contents, every file is stored only once on disk. Tools for analyzing backup data and restoring are provided. Once archived, files are accessible by mounting file systems (locally, or via Samba or NFS). It is easy to install and configure. Additional features are backup consistency checking, offline backups, and replication of backups.

3.3

This release can make an estimation if a compression might reduce the file size. E.g. when traveling, you can make backups without access to the master backup, and integrate these backups later into the central one. Backups can be replicated (automated), so you can generate copies of your backups (e.g. on another external disk). storeBackup can validate your backup via checksums. With storeBackupCheckSource.pl, it can validate unchanged files in the source directory against checksums in the backup, e.g. to recognize bit rot.
