Thank you Jon and everyone who have helped me understand a lot of things in Amanda. I have been able to split DLEs into multiple DLEs for the sake for distributing them in proper schedule. I also tried using inparallel and maxdump in amanda config and was successful only after configuring correct spindles in DLEs.
And yes, split_diskbuffer is correct. I am using it now which I think I ignored completely earlier. Currently, I have scheduled 2 amanda configurations in cron for amcheck/amdump. These jobs are going fine. One is weeklyfullbackup(daily incremental(5 days) and other monthlyfull ( daily incremental ) . I am thinking about buying another storage in order to accomodate additional DLEs that I have enabled. 300G is not enough. And, yes virtual tapes option looks cost effective as well.. I will write more .. Thanks! +---------------------------------------------------------------------- |This was sent by upendra.gan...@gmail.com via Backup Central. |Forward SPAM to ab...@backupcentral.com. +----------------------------------------------------------------------
