Some Information on Amanda



Hi list
 
I need to  set up a back-up serverserver  for our network and  need  recommendation for a good backup software to enable me do that. However my back up is going to be done using a 2gig jaz drive attached to the backup server.
 
Could you guys help me in choosing a backup server that will allow me use a jaz drive?
 
Secondly while seaching for information on on backup server I took a look at Amanda and got the following description.
 
AMANDA, the Advanced Maryland Automatic Network Disk Archiver, is a backup system that allows the administrator of a LAN to set up a single master backup server to back up multiple hosts to a single large capacity tape drive.
 
My question is will this software allow me to make backups to a jaz drive or must I use only a tape drive.
 
TIA
 
Wilson Tuma
