15.5 Fermi Modular Backup (FMB)

The Fermi Modular Backup (FMB) system is a locally-written set of utility scripts used for backup, restore, and other similar administrative tasks. It was designed for use on the supported UNIX flavors. FMB uses short, simple-to-write modules to provide different tape rotation schemes, tape mount systems, archive formats, and so on. It also supports backup of remote machines, and/or remote tape drives.

See the Fermi Modular Backup System User's Guide, document number PU0164.
