RE: Backup to DVD

> hardware compression, do a Master Backup, and post your summary here.

Hi Tom,

JMHO, this is not a development issue relating to the SME server.  This is a
discussion singularly about BackupEdge compression and as such does not
belong on devinfo.  Your requests for follow up posts may more appropriately
be directed to a Microlite resource, say [email protected] or even to
you directly if you so choose.

Alternately, if you wish to discuss:

- building an rpm for install of BackupEdge onto SME
- developing and incorporating BackupEdge into the SME server-manager
interface

This is the place to discuss these types of SME development issues.

In general I think many SME users would be interested in improved backup
options for their server.  Of course we prefer to work in the open source
GPL environment.  SME is currently bundled with flexbackup.  However I'm
sure we all will agree flexbackup provides only basic backup and restore
functionality and is weak in overall features and ease of use.  Hence the
reason for this topic of discussion.

With my marketing hat on, Microlite may wish to consider releasing a
non-commercial 'lite' SME/BackupEdge version with upgrade path to your
commercial product.  I'm sure we would all be delighted in replacing
flexbackup with a non-commerical integrated SME/BackupEdge product ;->

Again, just my opinions.

Darrell
