Dear Ladies and Gentlemen,
In July 1999 we bought a Qualstar lib TLS-4220 with one AIT-2 Tape
Drive LVD. Until mid of last year we have operated this lib successfully
on a Solaris 7 platform with the Legato Networker 5.5 software.
Last year we have updated the system from AIT-2 to AIT-3 by exchangi

Hi,
i have a problem. For weekly backups we use Amanda with v-tapes. These tapes
get overwritten every week. No problems. Works fine.
At Sunday we want Amanda to backup on real tapes. These tapes should not be
overwritten every Sunday. We want to archive the tapes.
Now the problem. The Backup

hi,
as the response at this mailinglist i set up a script now which do some
pre stuff then start the backup and do some post stuff after the backup.
but the besser way would be an integration of these scripts into the
backup process because the logfiles will be at one single place.

hi,
it would be nice if amanda will be packaged with a compiled in wrapper tar
script instead of running tar from /usr/bin. perhaps it's possible to run
/usr/lib/amanda/tar-wrapper wich is calling /usr/bin/tar again. that
script could be changed then to call /usr/bin/star.

Actually, if it's on a windows 2003 server it is possible with the
standard "Microsoft Windows Backup", as the Windows 2003 version of
NTBACKUP will use shadow copies to do the backup. Any other Windows
OS (XP, 2000, etc...) it is not standard.

As other folks have mentioned, no, you don't. However, what I haven't
seen clarified yet is what
As an aside, it's considered bad from to "respond" to a list email
(and then change the subject) when starting a new thread. Your question
gets buried in an unrelated thread (for those of us using threaded mail
readers) which a) annoys people, and b) makes it less likely to get
answered.
