Open Source Solaris Backup Software

DAR is a command-line backup and archiving tool that uses selective compression (not compressing already compressed files), strong encryption, may split an archive in different files of given size and provides on-fly hashing, supports differential backup with or without binary delta, ftp and sftp protocols to remote cloud storage Archive internal's catalog, allows very quick restoration even a single file from a huge, eventually sliced, compressed, encrypted archive eventually located on a remote cloud storage, by only reading/fetching the necessary data to perform the operation. Dar saves *all* UNIX inode types, takes care of hard links, sparse files as well as Extended Attributes (MacOS X file forks, Linux ACL, SELinux tags, user attributes) and some Filesystem Specific Attributes (Linux ext2/3/4, Mac OS X HFS+) more details at: http://dar.linux.free.fr/doc/Features.html

BackupPC is a high-performance, enterprise-grade backup system for backing up Linux, WinXX PCs, Macs and laptops to a server's disk. Features include clever pooling of identical files, no client-side software, and a powerful Apache/CGI user interface.

Advanced archiver (zpaq fork) with deduplication and versioning. Never prune your backups: keeps a forever-to-ever copy (even thousands of versions) of your files, conceptually similar to Mac time machines, or zfs' snapshots, but much more efficiently. Ideal for virtual machine backup and "freezing" zfs snapshots forever. Easily handles millions of files and TBs of data. Allows rsync backups to the cloud (or NAS, or USB) with minimal data transfer, encryption and very limited bandwidth. Highest possibilities of data verification, fast, deep and even paranoid-level, with support for multithread acceleration on SSD/NVMe (real world 1GB/s+). Freeware Win GUI (PAKKA) here https://www.francocorbelli.it/pakka/build/latest No complex repository folders, just one file. Latest "hashers" (SHA-3, BLAKE3 w/HW acceleration on Win, XXH3) 15+ years of developing (2009-now). Seeing is believing! https://github.com/fcorbelli/zpaqfranz/wiki

Bacula is a set of computer programs that permit managing backup, recovery, and verification of computer data across a network of computers of different kinds. Based on Source Forge downloads, Bacula is the most popular Open Source backup program.

uCON64 is a tool to backup all kinds of video games. It supports almost every available backup unit for cartridge-based consoles and performs many other tasks like ROM hacking.

Fpart is a tool that helps you sort file trees and pack them into bags (called "partitions"). It is developped in C and available under the BSD license. It splits a list of directories and file trees into a certain number of partitions, trying to produce partitions with the same size and number of files. It can also produce partitions with a given number of files or a limited size. Once generated, partitions are either printed as file lists to stdout (default) or to files. Those lists can then be used by third party programs. Fpart also includes a live mode, which allows it to crawl very large filesystems and produce partitions in live. Hooks are available to act on those partitions (e.g. immediatly start a transfer using rsync(1)) without having to wait for the filesystem traversal job to be finished. Used this way, fpart can be seen as a powerful data migration tool.

mp3 library, advanced ID3V1 and ID3V2 tagger, player. Organize a large mp3 library, over 40,000 songs. Speech synthesis and tag backup utilities. Scripts to maintain and organize song files.

X-CD-Roast is a flexible frontend for optical disc authoring. It combines command line tools like "cdrecord", "cdda2wav", "readcd" and "mkisofs" into a nice GTK based graphical user interface.

These tools are used to view information about, and to control, Media Changer devices such as Tape and DVD/CD libraries.

RESTORE is a complete enterprise network backup and recovery solution. It is scalable to a complete backup solution for multiple workstations, servers and data centers. It operates over local area networks, wide area networks, and the Internet.

KBackup is an easy-to-use backup package for Unix. It was originally writen by Karsten Balluder. Currently, it's development has stagnated, and several fixes are needed. The main mailing-list for KBackup is in egroups (www.egroups.com).

BackUp Tool is a small Perl script that is periodically executed to created backups of certain projects/directory's and only adds the backup if changes have been made since the last time a backup has been made, to do this it makes use of md5 checksums.

BAR can create compressed, encrypted and splitted archives of files and disk images which can be stored on a disk, cd, dvd, bd or directly on a ftp, scp or sftp server. A server-mode and a scheduler is integrated for making automated backups.

BonC - Backup on CDs utilities. Let you make on-the-fly large backups into multiple CDs with no worry about buffer underrun.

Perl based script for monitoring Legato Networker Servers. It's look like nsrwatch program, with additional features. You can monitor device, sessions, session on single device, group status (completion, work list), pendings, messages in single window.

ESR Backup (Easy, Secure, Remote) is a backup system for UNIX and Linux that is easy to use and configure. It automatically performs full and incremental backups on files you choose, and automatically rotates and archives your backups, encrypts archives

Backup to filesystems or CD R/Ws as a “Jukebox”-like device with Legato NetWorker. The purpose is to use a Jukebox of for instance 10 R/W CD Records instead of a StorageTek SILO, which might be a bitter cheaper for the common user.

The goal is to provide a set of customizable shell scripts to achieve massive backups on tape from multiples filesystems, while keep tapes as full as possible.

GD RCS is a revision contol system which supports repository on removable media. It combines the abilities of PRCS, archiving tools like Zip and backup utilities.

Cataloguer of Files of our hard disks and removable discs. There allows to obtain a list our files in an organized manner both in HTML format as PDF. It has the option to back up our more important files in a folder of our choice.

Jar Ajar is a JAR-based self-extractor for zip files. Zip up files and package them with descriptive images and text using Jar Ajar's graphical interface. When recipients launch the resulting JAR, Jar Ajar guides users through the unzip process.

MyTSMreport is a Project that use a Mysql DB to store the account information from a Tivoli Storage Manager and show them on web pages through PHP scripts in tables and graphs. It do also query toward the TSM DB and store the results in the MySQL DB.

NDMJOB is a NDMP-compatible backup/restore package, reference implementation, and conformance test. NDMP is an open protocol for network based backup enabling multi-vendor backup solutions. Please see http://www.ndmp.org for more information.

OpenTMS is a full-function tape management system, similar to the tape management functionality long supported on mainframe computers. It provides commands and an API for storing and retrieving files / data objects to tape volumes in a tape library.

Peters Backup is a program for backing up your important data files on to diskette, zip drive, fixed disk or CD/RW. It uses an extremely efficient compression algorithm. It keeps track of all versions of your files in full and incremental backups.
