| Hans-G?nter@25286 | 1 Rsnapshot is a filesystem snapshot utility based on rsync. |
| Hans-G?nter@25286 | 2 Rsnapshot makes it easy to make periodic snapshots of local machines, |
| Hans-G?nter@25286 | 3 and remote machines over ssh. |
| Hans-G?nter@25286 | 4 The code makes extensive use of hard links whenever possible, to greatly |
| Hans-G?nter@25286 | 5 reduce the disk space required. |
| Hans-G?nter@25286 | 6 |
| Hans-G?nter@25286 | 7 Depending on your configuration, it is quite possible to set up in just |
| Hans-G?nter@25286 | 8 a few minutes. |
| Hans-G?nter@25286 | 9 Files can be restored by the users who own them, without the root user |
| Hans-G?nter@25286 | 10 getting involved. |
| Hans-G?nter@25286 | 11 |
| Hans-G?nter@25286 | 12 There are no tapes to change, so once it's set up, your backups can happen |
| Hans-G?nter@25286 | 13 automatically untouched by human hands. |
| Hans-G?nter@25286 | 14 And because rsnapshot only keeps a fixed (but configurable) number of |
| Hans-G?nter@25286 | 15 snapshots, the amount of disk space used will not continuously grow. |
| Hans-G?nter@25286 | 16 |
| Hans-G?nter@25286 | 17 It is written entirely in perl with no module dependencies, and has been |
| Hans-G?nter@25286 | 18 tested with versions 5.004 through 5.16.3. |
| Hans-G?nter@25286 | 19 It should work on any reasonably modern UNIX compatible OS. |

| Hans-G?nter@25286 | 21 Rsnapshot was originally based on an article called Easy Automated |
| Hans-G?nter@25286 | 22 Snapshot-Style Backups with Linux and Rsync, by Mike Rubel. |
