The new backup services

[Ron]

Is this service stored on the same hardware as the JAG managed services backups?
In other words if I were to utilize this service, would I be doubly
doubly redundant?

[JPC-Greg]

This backup services is an ftp backup service you can access on your own that spans a new nas we have in place. Our managed backup service that we provide also backs up to a nas but we run several nas devices. It isnt guaranteed that the managed services nas backups would be on a different nas then your ftp backup service but it is possible. If you subscribed to both our managed backup service and this ftp service you managed yourself, yes there would be two seperate instances of your data backed up.

To add on to what Greg mentioned already, you will be able to utilize this backup space via not only FTP, but also SFTP, SCP, or Rsync over SSH allowing you to choose your favorite method. Eventually, we'll also have a basic script available to you that can be personalized and run via cron if you like.

Can you narrow down "eventually" to "maybe a week", "maybe a month", or "maybe 3 months" kind of a timeframe?

I think they have learned thier lesson on give out dates....

When people ask me that question my awnser is

"It will be done, when it is done"

//no help
// just trolling

What the heck is an 'nas' ?

[Gwaihir]

Network attached storage -- something we used to call "file server" a while ago till 'they' figured out that wasn't fancy enough

oh... It all makes sense now
