Okay, I guess I'll just set a large chunksize, then. Thanks!
To answer Ian's question, I am simply accustomed to the default being
not to divide backup files up. Before now, I always thought of
chunksize as only being used if needed and, when not needed and thus
not set, essentially disabled oth
I'm having trouble making backups because the estimates are taking too long.
I inherited an amanda backup setup and my predecessor had already increased
the etimeout to 1800. I doubled it to 3600 and I was still getting timeout
warnings at the top of the email when I did an amdump. So I doubled
The default is 1 GB, but specifying 0 will just compute a size based on
INT_MAX. I don't think there is any way to specify unlimited chunksize, but
you could specify whatever your filesystem limit actually is. (2 TiB for ext2
with 4KiB blocks)
Just out of curiosity, why do you care?

What Amanda version?
The closest you can get to
$ amreadlabel CONF
CONF-012
is
$ amtape S3 current

Hello,
I'm searching for the command to read the label of the currently
inserted tape. Can somebody give me a hint?

Hi, I recently upgraded form Amanda 2.4.4 to 2.6.0. I used to have
chunksize commented out altogether for my holding disks to avoid having
things divided up. Since the upgrade, it is defaulting to a cnunksize
of 1G. Do I simply set it to 0 to not use multiple files?
Thanks,
Paul
Amanda is taking a very long time to write the dumps.
My inparallel setting is set to 50.
Amanda has all data waiting to be backed up in /hold.
What are other people running inparallel at?
If I got 500gb < 8hours in /hold whats a reasonable setting to
set inparallel at ?
Thanks.
