How can I tell what compression I am using? Also how do I make sure
hardware compression is off?
Hello,
If you have compression enabled you will see something like "compress
client fast" in your amanda.conf dumptype definition and
amanda uses gzip for compression by default. You can change this default
by using "client custom" option when you define your dumptype in
amanda.conf. As far as the compression on the tape drive you can use "mt
-f /dev/nst0 defcompression 0" to turn compression off.
