handling unreasonably large, non-static directories

[Cameron Matheson]

Hi,

Amanda has been working wonderfully for me ever since I started using it 
about a year ago.  I do have one question though, that plagues me every 
time I try to confront it:

I have one directory on one of my boxes that holds files for customers 
(each customer gets a subdirectory (the subdirectory seems to just be a 
customer number... so it's mostly sequential unless a customer gets 
deleted.  The size of these directories varies widely (anywhere from a 
few megabytes to 15 gigabytes).  All in all there is a little under 
200GB of data that needs to be backed up.  Initially I had just been 
going through the list of directories myself and compiling 15GB chunks 
of them to be backed up, but due to the ever-changing nature of these 
directories it's kind of a pain to keep up w/ that.  Is there any way I 
could have amanda automatically split this directory up into chunks to 
be backed up?  Or, does anyone else have any keen ideas on how one might 
approach this problem?

Thanks,
Cameron Matheson
