Hi there!
We're running amanda with a 20/40Gig HP-DAT tape drive,
so I should be able to backup at least 20 Gigs, right ?
Because we're touching the 20Gig limit, and need some time
to choose the right new tape device, I tried to enable
the devices hardware compression by using 'mt datcompression on'.
How do I have to interpret the results of the tapetype command run with
enabled
compression ? Shouldn't there be more tape space available now, or does the
compression
not work ?
define tapetype HPDAT {
comment "just produced by tapetype program"
length 16385 mbytes
filemark 32 kbytes
speed 2546 kps
}
Thank you :-)
Cheers,
