Tape backup software

Question

I'm looking for backup software to backup my server that will allow me to easily perfom automatic backups - monthly full backup, weekly incremental backups and occaisional adhoc backup.
the automatic backups can be done with a cli tool, the adhoc I'd prefer a GUI prog.
Hardware:
IBM eServer x345 with 130GB disks (average around 40% full ~50GB)
Dell PowerVault 110T LTO - 100GB native

I just use a script of my own and just call it using cron.  All though I don't hold enough data to warrant incremental backups.  Here it is.
gary@reddwarf ~ $ cat /usr/local/bin/backup
#!/bin/bash
#backup script for $1
rm $2/backup*.txt
FN="$2/backup-`date +%d-%m-%y`.txt"
STIME=`date +%s`
export FN STIME
echo Setting backup options > $FN
#mt -f /dev/st0 compression 1
mt -f /dev/st0 drvbuffer 1
mt -f /dev/st0 stoptions buffer-writes
echo - >> $FN
echo Starting backup of $1 on `date` >> $FN
echo - >> $FN
tar cvpPWf /dev/st0 $1 -X $1/exclude >> $FN ## -X does not work on this version of tar
#tar cvpPWf /dev/st0 $1 >> $FN
ETIME=`date +%s`
export ETIME
BTIME=`expr $ETIME / 60 - $STIME / 60`
export BTIME
echo Backup of $1 complete and verified in $BTIME minuites>> $FN
#mt -f /dev/st0 offline
There are some incremental backup scripts floating round the fourms.
There are plenty other examples in this thread http://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=56646
You should be able to coble something together from these.  You will have a much finer control writing a little script
