Open Source Backup?

[DriftGrant]

Hi Guys,

 

Just setup a 2008 R2 server and need to backup to tapes, the server (when 2003) used to use ntbackup.

 

Looking for a open source piece of software to backup to tapes on 08R2 or something rather cheap.

 

Thanks in advance

something rather cheap.

I don't think you are going to find anything decent for free. For cheap, I would pick either Microsoft's DPM 2010 or BackupAssist.

How about Bacula, the Open Source, Enterprise ready, Network Backup Tool for Linux, Unix, and Windows not used it myself but recommended by other people..
