I realised late last night that the error message I see in the report has now changed. It looks as though I have somehow turned off tape-spanning, so that it is trying to get everything onto one DVD size tape: planner: borg /home 20060615 0 [dump larger than available tape space, 4650086 KB, full dump delayed] I've been going through amanda.conf again this morning, trying to see where the problem is, but haven't spotted it so far. Which parameters do I need to check, please? Here are some of the settings that seem relevant: define dumptype global { comment "Global definitions" index yes # record no tape_splitsize 400 Mb # split_diskbuffer "/dumps" fallback_splitsize 100m maxpromoteday 1 } define tapetype HARD-DISK { comment "WD 120GB drive hdb6" lbl-templ "/usr/local/etc/amanda/Daily/3hole.ps" length 4100 mbytes # will burn to DVD } runtapes 10 tpchanger "chg-disk" tapetype HARD-DISK Anne
