fixed day backup

[bao]

Hello,

In the Amanda FAQ, there is one question "How can I configure Amanda to 
perform full backups on the weekend and incrementals on weekdays?". The 
answer is "You can't."

It's unfortunate that the plan above is what I need. I need to run full 
backup once a week, and incrementals on the other days. All of the 
backups will stay on disk (tapeless backup), plus the full will be put 
on tape. Disk only keeps one week (full + incrementals), and tapes keep 
8 weeks of full-only.

If Amanda manages the full and incremental using its own way. How can I 
know which one has the full, and when the full is performed, to automate 
the process of transferring to tape??

Has anyone done this sucessfully and How can I do it??

Best regards,
