ideal amanda.conf configuration

[Sergio A Lima Jr]

Dear friends,

I'm have dificulties for create and manager back-up with amanda server.

My problems: I not get ideal configuration for running back-up.

My scenary:

1. Back-up server machine running GNU/Linux kerner 2.4 and file system
type ext3. Tape device is SONY and model: SDT-2000E, with tapes of the
2GB uncompressed (single slot).

2. Is necessary running back-up 3 every time this week and incluind
rotine of the back-up 3 servers.

3. The volum total of the files is approximate 22Gb.

Someone have ideas of the create a amanda.conf file?

Thank's a lot.

Best regards.

P.S.: Please, sorry my bad english...
