enterpriseLinux laptop backups.. what software is out there?
Author Message
Post BRU happiness but... 
We are using BRU from the tolisgroup http://www.tolisgroup.com/ to our general satisfaction. They are VERY helpful and fast responding to problems/bug-reports etc.

The only problem that I have is that I cannot find a dedicated BRU Forum discussion-area where I can meet other users. Sad Can anyone send me a relevent url?

p.s. My question would be: If I am appending to my destination group (not over-writing) for my incremental backups, how can I easily recycle all tapes (and only those tapes) with last-use predating the most recent full-backup.?? My current solution is to manually modify the current destination to not include the slots containing those tapes, add the slots containing those tapes a new destination, recycle the destination, remove the destination, and add those slots back to the original destination. Is there a better solution? Has anyone automated this solution using the command-line (libctl and tapectl ?).

A quick Google search returned their mailing list...use that.

It looks like they have a user-to-user discussion list.
