[SAGE] Backup Software and execute commands to multiple systems

[Nicolas Dorfsman <ndo@unikservice.com>]

	Hi,

	I'm currently lookink for two things.


	1)	In term of backup, I need to setup something able to backup 10 Linux
boxes onto a server with two options : 1) backup on disk and then backup
disks to tape-loader 2) backup directly to tape-loader.
	Amanda seems to have many of capabilities I'm looking for...except
backup to multi-volume. So my first idea is to use amanda to do the
disk-backup, and then use cpio or another tool to throw disk data to
tapes.
	Could you give me your feeling on Amanda and suggest tools useful to
achieve the goal (option 1 or 2) ?


 	2) 	I need to execute commands on multiple Linux systems. I found
remote_update on GNU web. I'd like to have some point of wiews on it and
maybe other piece of software doing the same task.


	TIA
