Hey All! We're setting up amanda on our servers, and the primary backup is going to be on a dedicated disk/virtual tapes. One of the offsite locations is going to be a bucket on Amazon's S3.
Now I see that amanda has the capability of writing to multiple volumes in parallel, but I'm wondering if it would be more efficient to have amada write the backup to the localdisk first and then use rsync to mirror that backup onto the S3 bucket. Or would it be a better idea to have amanda manage both "tapechangers"? Any discussion would be most welcome! -- Andrius
