Greetings,
I'm pretty new to AMANDA. I have a few questions that will be helpful to me
as I explore more AMANDA documentation.
1. Can the tape server be a system other then the AMANDA server or a system
acting as both the client and the server. So in other words, lets say you

Hello,
I needed to flush a dump to tape the day before yesterday. I put the next
tape in the rotation in the drive and ran amflush. That tape was tape8 in
my cycle. Amflush reported an error saying tape8 was active and it would
not overwrite. So I put in tape9 and ran the flush and it ran ok.

I've been using amanda for awhile now, loving it. I have 5 hosts being
backed up, 4 of which are < 18G on L0's and one of which has a 180GB
RAID partition. I have a 15 tape changer with AIT2 tapes.
The problem is obviously that amanda can't span filesystems, and my
usage on the RAID has now ex

I have a configuration question for the list:
I have a backup server that is currently only backing itself up.
It has two tape devices:
- 1 DLT 2000
- 1 DDS2 (12 tape changer)
I would like to have all of the Full (0 level) backups go to the DLT
and all of the Incremental backups
On option #2, AMANDA will schedule the backups so that the level 0's are
spread out across tapes. You can make this easier by adding the new TAR
backup entries one at a time, so that each one gets its first level 0 on a
separate run, and making the TAR backups as equal in size as practical. The

with the chg-multi glue script. My devices I was using are:

All was well except for the problem of forgetting to mount a tape from
the magazine before a run or something like that.

Hi,
I'd like to run a daily backup with a dumpcycle of three weeks. Amanda is started from
Monday to Saturday (6 days a week). What tapecycle value do I have to use:
dumpcycle3 weeks

tapecycle24 tapes ???
A second weekly backup should run every Su
Is it possible to have tar called with -h (follow symlinks) from within
amanda? I haven't found a blurb in amanda.conf like TAR_OPTIONS.
Hi,
When I do my backups I use the GNU tar for my root-tar dumptype.
While I was trying to restore a file tonight I would get the
following error:
tar: ./trevor/trevor: Cannot open: Not a directory
tar: Error exit delayed form previous errors

It will be fun if there happens to be a symlink loop.
