What do people think about my proposed solution to this problem
Problem
-------
Filesysteem needs to be backed up using amanda. Level 0 doesn't fit on a
single tape anymore (after compression)
Solutions
---------
a) By a tape unit which can hold more data (expensive)
b) Wait for multi-tape support in amanda (ETA ?)
c) Split the filesystem on the server
d) let amanda believe that the filesystem is split
- create two dumptype, each with a seperate exclude list
- add two entries to the disklist with seperate dump type (will
amanda backup the same partition twice ?)
- (if the above step doesn't work) create a new /dev/rdsk/.. entry
pointing to the same device but with a different name
Do you think d) can be made to work ?
