Hello folks,
Is there a way to get Amanda to balance automatically the full dumps for a
given configuration?
Amanda do it by default.
I'm using version 3.1.3 and here's a 'amadmin config balance' output:
due-date #fs orig kB out kB balance

amanda can't balance if the tape size is too small, you could increase
runtapes.
amanda can't balance if maxpromoteday is set to a small value.
amanda might have some problem balancing the bigger dle, manual force
can help.
You have 51 dles and amanda plan 311 full in the next dumpcycle days!!!
Do you have dles that you force full more often?
