Code Backup

[stukelly]

Currently our code is manually backed up onto an external drive every Friday. I have been looking for an on-line backup service for our source code and have a few questions.

Are your backup servers secure?
How often are your backup servers backed up?

Hi Stuart,

Our backup servers are secure and no one can access our backup servers through SSH besides the allowed IPs of our office and Data Center. We will setup daily / weekly cron from the backup server which will take backups automatically as per the backup schedule.

We have RAID setup on our backup servers which is more than sufficient for security of the data on our backup servers. We don't make any additional backups of the backup servers.

All in all, the backup systems are redundant so your data is safe on them. I don't think theres been many (if any) complaints about the service so far since its been launched .

I've had the odd issue but we eventually got to the bottom of that. Overall, they're good value for what you get.

Was it your fault? (had to ask ).

Nope, it was a quota issue on the server which meant the drive was filling up.

I've ordered LB-05 backup plan. Is there a way to check how much space I have used up?
