When was bumppercent introduced?

I notice that the doc on amanda.org mentions a parameter "bumppercent". It is not mentioned in my local manual page. Is this a relatively new option? When was it introduced? I mean, what version do I have to install in order to get it? This variant is obviously a lot more flexible than bumpsiz

Is tape spanning documented anywhere?

I haven't been following the posts to this list too closely, or bothered to upgrade amanda, for some time (since our existing setup *works*...), so I didn't find out until right now that tape spanning is supported in the current release. Anyhow, I'd really like to know more about how the spann

filename ... has invalid characters

I'm now testing amanda 2.5.0p2. First problem: # amstatus ks/archive filename 'ks/archive' has invalid characters. I suppose the problem here is that I specified a filename containing "/", but I actually did this on purpose, and it has always worked in the past. I'm using multiple directory le

Version 2.5.0p2: amstatus parse error for logfile from older version

I'm trying to run "amstatus" on existing logfiles after upgrading from version 2.4.4p3 to 2.5.0p2. Unfortunately, the command will most of the time fail with a message like: amstatus ks --file /dumps/amanda/ks/log/amdump.1 Using /dumps/amanda/ks/log/amdump.1 from Thu Jun 8 17:04:30 CEST 2006

Hi all; being merrily running amanda for about three years now, right now our tapes are slowly getting filled. This weekends full dump obviously seems to have completed without errors, but, running amverify ended up with the following: ... amverify Full Mo Jun 12 13:01:54 CEST 2006 Loading curr

Re: When was bumppercent introduced?

Jean-Louis added "bumppercent" on 2004-04-06 according to ChangeLog. So, it has been around for sometime. I think you will need to use 2.4.5 or later to get this feature. It is documented in amanda.conf man page http://wiki.zmanda.com/index.php/Amanda.conf and in the example/amanda.conf. Thanks

Hi Toralf, First off, I rather like your approach to configuration files. A little research shows that the explicit test was introduced to plug a security hole reported by PERL... See BUG #1353481 for more information. I'm piping in here, and expanding the audience to include amanda_hackers, sin
