RVM

Rsync Vault Manager is an archive manager that uses rsync to manage backups of multiple clients across multiple logical partitions (vaults).

It has some features that some other rsync-based backup schemes lack: it is written in C++, needs no scripts or programs other than rsync and any binaries on which rsync depends (such as SSH), can manage multiple instances of rsync connections to separate clients in parallel, can use multiple logical partitions (vaults) in a configurable fashion for redundancy and reliability, and can use hard links for files that have not changed from one archive to the next.
