need filesystem recommendation
 

Hi All,

I have a backup site and I would like to rsync from production to
backup site. However, I would like to have all backups be compressed
so I can save space. Can anyone recommend a good way to do this? I am
currently using tar and bzip2 to do this.

TIA

Have a look at BackupPC < backuppc.sourceforge,net >


It is very easy to install from source, there's even an rpm on the testing
repo.

It does compression and pooling of backups.
