Now you're outside of my limited expertise with Amanda :-) I have only handled backups to a single tape drive, no changers. There is plenty of experience on the amanda-users list though so I'm gonna hand it off to them. And, actually your English is just fine! Sébastien GALLET wrote: > But aman

2002-08-21 Thread Sébastien GALLET
I'm trying to backup my mp3 collection (a little more than 60 Gb) on my onstream DI-30 tape (15 Gb). The 2 first tapes work fine but when backing up on the third, amdump stops and report this :   shining    /var/datacentre/mp3 lev 0 FAILED [too many taper retries]   NOTES:  taper: tape Mp3Set

GNUTAR options

2002-08-21 Thread Matthew Boeckman
I'm using GNUTAR to backup a few directories that, as a filesystem, are too large for my tapes. This works fine. My question is, what is the best way to pass additional options to tar, namely -h to follow symlinks. I realise the danger that this may cause (symlinking to a dir that is being bac

Hi Galen, I have just run my first amanda backup - which backs up the amanda server itself plus a load of windows shares on my NT Server. I suggest you configure SAMBA using SWAT - it is a nice Browser interface that does not need a web server. So 1. Install SWAT - 2. Install SAMBA - make sure a

Hi! Go search for "amanda win32" on SourceForge... There is a Win32 client for Amanda. You will need to make stuff around it to make sure it works (about a 2 week work for me) and go backup! And if you manage to use this client, you will be able to save data, but also filesystems rights (specif
