Hello, I have a nice amanda system configured with a 7 days dump cyles (5 runs per cicle). We usually use a tape each day, so that means we need 20 tapes per month.
My boss just decided that we are using to mutch tapes so we wants me to cut on that number. He wants to use only use 3/4 tapes per week, but he still wants the daily incrementals. So I would like to do incremental every day to disk, then after 2 days put on tape. I know amanda is not supost to handle this and I know I could always remove the tape every other day and amanda fails the tape operation. Does anyone have a clean solution for using less tapes? Best regards, Luis
