This is not about balancing your level 0 dumps, but with
"inparallel 1", you are not using any possibility
to do things in parallel, a very useful feature in Amanda.

how do I split partitions to get smaller dumps? I have two partitions

Hi,
As far as I've been reading here and in the docs, I would have to set up
dumptypes using tar and exclude lists. I would somehow backup
/home/[a-c]*, /home/[d-f]* and so on.
But that doesn't seem to be a good solution. I would have to create 10
different dumptypes and 10 exclude lists to

Don't forget that you can define exclude patterns inline in your

When using -T you should not specify a list of things

Yes, indeed!

No need to define a proper dumptype for every exclusion under the sun.

It's just a Debian package I installed. Maybe they have an extra package

Thanks you gentlemen all - for your comments and advice.
The advice to RTFM is understood and well taken.
The clarification as to the prepending of my exclude list especially...
My hosts are set up and the backups ran smoothly - all reports minus
"AMANDA MAIL REPORT FOR BogusMonth 0, 0" ran fine.
