I use backup software named UrBackup (free, open source). I have it backing up several Linux systems and Windows systems. It uses LVM snapshots on the Linux systems configured with LVM (which is most of them). On the hard partitioned Linux systems, the backups are done from live filesystems, but the data is static. I use plain old ext4 - I've just never felt terribly compelled to use btrfs, reiserfs, jfs, xfs, or any of the other more exotic filesystem types - I've experimented with them some, but never implemented them on anything but temporary test filesystems. UrBackup stores all these backups on a remote server using an rsync-plus-hard-link strategy to create daily snapshots.
