Hello All,

We are using Linux, Mac, Solaris and Windows in our network and OS
Lab. Please suggest me a software/product(that also includes hardware)
to take OS level backup of all the above mentioned OS. I am open for
freeware as well as propreitory solution.

I require following things to be automated:

a) Incremental/complete backup of OS and its content. I believe it
should be an image based just like Xenserver but i cant install
xenserver as bare metal here cause these servers are important and
running in production environment.

b) Automated backup and alert after backup completion or any problem
while taking backup

c) Easy to use GUI and very quick configuration fields.

d) Restoring should also be equally easy.

I have checked internet and have found Bacula as possible solution but
i am not sure if it takes OS level backup as i have mentioned above or
not.

Seeking your help and advise.

Regards,
AB
