Amanda
Amanda, or the Advanced Maryland Automatic Network Disk Archiver is a computer archiving tool that is able to backup data via a network. It uses a client server model and includes:
- the backup server and client itself
- a tape server
- an index server
All three servers do not necessarily need to run on the one machine.
Amanda was developed by the University of Maryland[?] and is released under the GNU General Public License. It is provided without warranties and for no cost. Amanda runs on almost any Unix system, including open source systems.
