I don't know if the number of parallel lufs-mounts relates to performance ... AFAIK it would not be necessary to have them all mounted, only the vtape that is currently requested.

Vlad, create an archive containing : - your config-files (usually /usr/local/etc/amanda/<myconf>) - the corresponding log-files (/usr/adm/amanda/<myconf>) and - the debugfiles (/tmp/amanda) and send it to me off-list. Have you already tried to use the lufs-mount-option "--channels=X" ? Best regards, Stefan G. Weichinger. mailto://[EMAIL PROTECTED]
