Hello, I need help on figuring out how to set up the dump cycle. The way I have previously done backups is a full dump on Friday night with incremental dumps Saturday through Thursday. I keep the full dumps for the past 5 Fridays, and full dumps done on the last Friday of the previous 3 months. I short, I want to have the ability to restore a system to its previous state for the last 7 days, 5 weeks, and 3 months. I have an Powervault 120T/DLT7000 that holds 7 tapes. With compression off each tape holds about 35G. A full dump of all of my systems uncompressed will fill nearly 6 tapes. I have plenty of tapes to swap out all tapes daily. Is there an easy way to set amanda.conf up to backup like this in only one configuration? Or do I need multiple configs? I have already read the Amanda chapter of the O'Reilly Backup book. I would just like to see someone's example config who may be doing something similar to what I am trying to do. Thanks!
