I am trying to backup something that can only have incremental with increasing levels: it cannot do two level 1 in a row, levels must be 1, then 2, then 3, etc. (think some successive snapshots). According to amanda.conf(5) man page: bumpdays int Default: 2 days. To insure redundancy in the dumps, Amanda keeps filesystems at the same incremental level for at least bumpdays days, even if the other bump threshold criteria are met. I want to absolutely cancel that feature, each incremental must have a level creater than the previous dump and an incremental level can not be bumped (only level 0 can be bumped). Thainks, Olivier
