rsnapshot
You may want to check out rsnapshot. It is a python script that wraps around rsync and allows for incremental backups. It will produce directories by default for every 4 hours, 7 days, 4 weeks, and 3 months. Each directory should be an exact copy of your filesystem at that time, but it uses hard links to keep the space requirements down. Meaning only one copy of the file really exists even though it appears in multiple directories. I'm not sure if it has the load feature, though.
Oh, and it will do multiple systems and can also just do portions of them if you like.

Actually, rsync DOES do incremental backups. The "--backup" and "--backup-dir" options will dump the old version of any file found in the destination before overwriting it. I use this myself and put the incrementals into directory trees that have the year/month/day prefixed to the actual subdirectory name. rsync is pretty versatile like that...! |
