It may be a little rough at the beginning; but, once it gets going, it will smooth things out very nicely over the 7 days that you've configured. --- Chris Hoogendyk - O__ Systems Administrator c/ /'_ --- Biology & Geology Departments (*) \(*) -- 140 Morrill Science Center ~~ - University of Massachusetts, Amherst <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> --- Erdös 4

The number of amdump runs in dumpcycle days. A value of 0 means the same value as dumpcycle. A value of -1 means guess the number of runs from the tapelist file, which is the number of tapes used in the last dumpcycle days / runtapes. > tapecycle 15 tapes Fine.
