All, I want to install Amanda on a production environment, backup server on FreeBSD and clients running Linux, Solaris or FreeBSD.
I read in the section dedicated to Amanda (in the 'Unix backup & recovery', O'reilly) the following lines : AMANDA currently starts a new tape for each run and does not provide a mechanism to append a new run to the same tape as a previous run We are currently running Brightstor from Computer Associates, doing a full backup every sunday, and incremental backups on ONE tape everyday. Does that mean that if i want to do the same with Amanda, i have to rotate the tape every day ? (I forgot to explain that I have 2 DLT tapes backuping the datas). Thanks in advance for your explanations. -- Nicolas CARTRON
