Can I use this for migrating hundred of my old DLT 40/80 GB tapes (All contain level 0 dumps for long time archiving) to some LTO30 400/800 GB? Regards, Marc

Buildbot is running amvault, and we'll get some extra testing in the next releases, so that's good enough for me! Committed - r3341. Dustin -- Open Source Storage Engineer http://www.zmanda.com

Review Request: amvault --only-fulls option
I've already rewritten amvault to use the same underlying machinery as amfetchdump and taper -- at the same time. That means that amvault can now re-assemble dumps from the source volume and re-split them on the destination volume. Making this more general requires some hard thought about configurations and whatnot, but in the interim, it was pretty easy to add support for a frequently-requested feature: only vaulting full dumps. I've implemented it here (and I checked the link this time): http://github.com/djmitche/amanda/commit/z11694 and the patch is attached, as well. Like last time, it'd be great if someone could take a look and, if the patch looks good, let me know. Please feel free to add any comments on the github commit, too.
