Re: Restore with a different dumptype
Matthias,
There is no dumptype at restore time. The information is written in the
dump image.
The only solution is to do a manual restore.
amfetchdump -p ... | amgtar ...

the following one is used for backup:
define dumptype dotar {
compress none
index yes
record yes
program "GNUTAR"
auth "bsd"
}
and I need to overwrite "programm" and set application:

I've tried
# amrecover -oDUMPTYPE:dotar:program="APPLICATION" -C daily
parse error: unknown parameter 'DUMPTYPE:dotar:program'
amrecover: errors processing config file
but the config looks normal:
# amgetconf --list dumptype | grep dotar
dotar
This is amanda 3.3.3 under CentOS.
Thanks!

I mean "show the 2 dumptypes". You can always override the dumptype via "-o" commandline option, for example. I assume you talk about using amrecover? man 8 amrecover : read "Configuration override" Stefan
Restore with a different dumptype
Hello, is it possible to create backups on node "A" with dumptype "A" and restore on a different host with dumptype "B"? The problem is, that host "A" uses some special tools which are not present on node "B" so I have to use another dumptype for restore. Thanks Matthias
