I use vac in Plan 9 Ports to back up a bunch of Unix hosts to a Plan 9 venti. I've talked about this several times, including on here at least once or twice, but someone asked me again a day or two ago and I realized I didn't have anything convenient to point to. So I did a lab report:

        http://a.9srv.net/reports/vac-unix.pdf

(also .html or .ms if you prefer!)

There's nothing particularly novel in there, but an example in practice is often helpful. I've been using some variation on this since... 2009 (!!!) and it's been very useful.
