Best backup strategy with lots of re-structuring?
|

| Hi,
I know there is backup software that allows incremental and
differential backups so that it isn't always necessary to backup
everything even if only some data were added or changed.
The problem is that in my case there is also a lot of re-structuring
going on with my data, i.e. data move from one directory to a new or a
different directory. My worries are that if I use incremental or
differential backups I will get lots of duplicate files during a
restore. Am I right?
If yes, is there anything I can do about it? Which would be the best
backup strategy or software solution for my purposes?
Regards,
Peter

| You don't write much about your installation, but a product like
Veritas Netbackup can handle this.
