An in-house Perl script that uses rsync over ssh along with hardlinking to
create a set of 8 daily, 5 weekly, 3 monthly and 2 quarterly backups in a
set of directories that appear as full image backups on a dedicated
machine while taking about the same disk space as a single full
backup+diffs. It currently handles about 20 servers with around a terabyte
of data net. I've been using it for something like 5 years now.
