| Scheduling Network Backups |

|
Scheduling network backups for times when all machines are available
can be a challenge—particularly if you have laptop computers that are
not always on the network. Retrospect offers a great feature called
Backup Server that constantly polls all the clients on a network. If it
sees one that hasn't been backed up in at least 24 hours (or a period
of time that you specify), it performs the backup right away. Backup
Server can be restricted to run only during certain hours on certain
days, and it can also use any available, designated hard disk as a
destination—so you don't need to figure out in advance when to swap
media.
