Ask HN: Best Linux server backup system?

Linux Backup Solutions

I've been looking for the best Linux backup system, and also reading lots of HN comments.

Instead of putting pros and cons of every backup system I'll just list some deal-breakers which would disqualify them.

Also I would like that you, the HN community, would add more deal breakers for these or other backup systems if you know some more and at the same time, if you have data to disprove some of the deal-breakers listed here (benchmarks, info about something being true for older releases but is fixed on newer releases), please share it so that I can edit this list accordingly.

  • It has a lot of management overhead and that's a problem if you don't have time for a full time backup administrator.

LogShark is a simple utility to collect logs from an Android device using a PC.

I created this to help Android developers collect information from their app's users. This information can be very useful for debugging purposes.

From Android version 4.1 (Jelly Bean) onwards, it has become difficult to collect this information through the device itself. Hence the need for an app that runs on the PC.

Note that the collection of information is entirely voluntary. Moreover, the user can (and should) review the information before sending it to developers or other people.
