Did you take a look at the TAPE.CHANGERS file in the doc directory and enabled either the sgen driver, or installed the sst driver.

Reg:Problems with tape labelling due to change of label string
Hi everyone Recently I changed the lablestring in the amanda configuration file. I changed to format completely different from the old one. How do I relable the tapes which were labeled with the earlier configuration. When I try to lable the tapes with the new configuration it says the tape is labelled with a different amanda configuration Any suggestions please. regards chandrasekar

Because the size of one incremental backup is only between 2-4 GB I don't want to change the tape each day. You could crank your dumpcycle down to 3 (or whatever number would get Amanda to use most of your tape capacity). -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] - HMC UNIX Systems Manager My opinions are my own and probably don't represent anything anyway.
Re: adding options to rundump for XFS
John R. Jackson [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: jason wrote: Checking the xfsdump manpage, I see that the -e option to xfsdump will cause it to skip files with the SGI_XFSDUMP_SKIP_FILE attribute[1]. This is similar to the -h flag for dump on Linux. Look at how dump-honor-nodump in configure.in for is handled and add something similar. Then find the XFSDUMP code in client-src/sendbackup-dump.c and add a couple of lines to insert -e if HAVE_HONOR_SGI_XFSDUMP_SKIP_FILE (or whatever you call it) is defined. Great. I've already managed to hardcode the option in client-src/sendbackup-dump.c and client-src/sendsize.c, but doing it the Right Way would be preferable. Not rundump. Rundump is only used on systems that have to run dump as root. Is your system using rundump (you'd find debug files in /tmp/amanda and the sendbackup*debug file would indicate rundump was being used)? I thought XFS support implied rundump, but that appears to not be the case, since Also, USE_RUNDUMP would be defined in config/config.h and show up in amandad*debug. USE_RUNDUMP is not defined in config/config.h. An alternative to making any code changes would be to build your Amanda with the XFSDUMP environment variable set to point to a script that runs xfsdump with all the args it gets plus -e. Eeep! My `action at a distance' alarm is ringing, loudly! I'm not a fan of environment variables in the first place. But in the long run, it would be nice to have the -e support. Yeah. I'd rather modify the code. I'll see if I can whip a patch into shape and submit it back to the list. Cheers, -- Jason Henry Parker ``Choose mnemonic identifiers.
