I run it on FreeBSD and I just remove the drivers I don't need from the
kernel and tweek a couple of things. However having played a little with
5.1 (and not with amanda mind you) it's blindingly fast even compared to
4.8 so next time I build an amanda host I might try a stock 5.x

Amanda's estimate phase takes here between 3 and 8 hours (with GNU
tar). So I thought about ways of skipping the extra estimate phase.
The estimate does not have to be exactly correct. It really helps
amanda to have most estimates nearly correct, but amanda does not rely
on these numbers.

Greetings,
Last weekend, the data center operators did not put in Saturday and Sunday's
tapes. Amanda still did the backup to the local disk of course. On Monday,
the next tape was put in, and the backups continued on without complaint. I
still have these two backups on disk though, and I'm

If that is the problem, this is the type of labeling that is so often
cautioned against.
The labels are generic. The data center uses an in-house written piece of
Hello,
I'm just beginning to discover amanda, and yes, the setup and the tests are long and
hard.
Well, I have almost one month to do them, and I hope I will be able to get some help

Ok, what I'd like to do now is that :
- each day, a full backup
- I have a tape for every working day, from
Oooh. Let me try and reply as a (ex) newbie?!
first, are you running as amanda?
second: did you run amcheck -scconfigname -MMailname
third, did you check the output in the /tmp/amanda directory?
fourth. Are you sure the amanda commands are in your PATH directory ?

This means you're running amanda 2.4.4 or earlier.
Up to that version

Well there's your problem. The file: driver did not exist prior
to 2.4.3. (Not 100% but only 95% sure here).
There is no ammt either, I suppose.
Install 2.4.4p1, and try again.
Does man amanda on your system have a section OUTPUT DRIVERS at
all?

I just use a stock kernel (Debian Linux) with my amanda servers. I
seem not to have had trouble with doing this. The biggest
bottlenecks for me lie on the client side. That is, I end up waiting
a long time for clients to compress data and send it to the amanda
server. So I doubt optimization on

You must use at least the 2.4.3 version of amanda to be able to backup in a

Is this true?? If so, I found my problem!!!

I'm thinking of moving some Windows boxes from retrospect to
amanda/samba but I'm concerned about the registry. Under
retrospect you have a utility called regcopy. At a specified
interval it copies your registry out to a file, then if your hard
drive fails and you have to reload it from tape,
use ntbackup, save the systemstate to file and backup this file to tape

Thats a new one, at least to me John. Do you know what all is
installed in the stock install of a 'raidzone'?

The first simple solution that lights on my mind is (without recompiling):
1) Configure DHCP to use reservations: the same host gets the same IP based
on MAC address.
2) Configure a caching DNS server and point all of your clients there.
Define a bogus domain for your goal and add all clients to
If you can use the RegCopy utility outside Retrospect you can dump the
registry to disk before the amanda schedule and then wait for amanda to pass
and backup it with the other files.
If you cannot use RegCopy, use the builtin Windows backup tool to make a
