Please state which is an ideal backup sowftware to

I like MEEP (http://www.woods.iki.fi/pub/meep/) which is a simple
perl script
that uses rsync and hardlinks to create full backups that don't
take much
space (above what's required for the first copy).
I use meep in combination with mysqldump and some shell scripts to
back up a
bunch of servers. Rsyncing the meep backup to a remote site works
quite well
too, and the backups are just your files - no compression or any other
obfuscation, which makes restoring extremely convenient...
