Could we have (amanda.conf-parameter-switchable) informations about the

For example:
Instead of:
Some dumps may have been left in the holding disk.
Run amflush again to flush them to tape.

Why run amdump if you don't want new dump? Why not use amflush?
If the answer is: Because amdump only dump a few dle.
Then you should set the reserve to a value below 100.
With reserve==100, amdump record full dump only once they are put on
tape, that's why it retry it.
With reserve 100,

Hello- Thank you for the reply.
Are you *sure* you want your vtapes in /usr/src/amanda ?
No - I'm not sure of anything for sure, I'm just trying to
get this running! =) But, have not been successful!
I started with that HOWTO
(http://www.amanda.org/docs/howto-filedriver.html), and was
told that
Hi,
I ran into a similar message :
amlabel: could not load slot 1: could not read result from
/usr/lib/amanda/chg-disk
I found the answer on the forums:

In your amanda.conf, you need to define:
tapedev file://path/to/your/slots

Hi, Jeanna,
The setting I mentioned, pointing tapedev at the slots directory on
disk, is what I use for writing to virtual tapes, i.e. writing to disk.
Did you notice that the HOWTO you are using is dated Nov 2001? A lot has
changed since then. Try the HOWTO in the wiki at:

The tape drive is OK. Some tests:

# mt -f /dev/nst0 datcompression off
Compression off.
# mt -f /dev/nst0 setblk 10240
# tar cvf /dev/nst0 amanda-2.5.2-20070525.tar.gz

Thanks so much for the reply!
I can change that parameter value, however, in the 'HOWTO'
I was following, it tells me to comment out that specific
parameter so I don't think that will help:
-
/etc/amanda/DailySet1/amanda.conf
Hi, Stefan,
In your HOWTO, you have the following configuration for tapedev:
tapedev file:/amandatapes/daily
Should that be file:// ?

The new 'amadmin holding list' command gives that sort of result. If
you run, e.g.,
amadmin DailySet1 holding list -l
It will give you a detailed listing; an example from my development box:
size (kB) lv dump specification
1720 knuth /tmp/amanda/prefix/etc 20070529
62
knuth /tmp/amanda/prefix/etc 20070529
62 1 knuth /tmp/amanda/prefix/etc 20070529
'amadmin holding delete' can then be used to delete files from the
holding disk and update indexes appropriately, if you'd like.
Nice.
Is that documented somewhere?
When was it added?
Stefan.
