What do you want to achieve? mirror?
Using RAIT for mirroring is deprecated since we added vault functionality.
It is better to write to vtape and then amvault to S3.
In amanda-3.5, you can configure a dump to be flushed from holding disk
to vtape and S3.

Hi all,
I'm looking at utilising RAIT.
I have roughly 33TB of hard disk that can be used for VTATE and 8x LTO6 tapes

Does my length in my tape definition need to match my VTAPE length? The tape

This is with snapshot:

Dick,
What kind of tape drive do you have?
Try to configure amanda with '--with-broken-fsf'.

Dick,
I did all my test with a file: and a tape: drivers, and it works, but you
are right, it doesn't work

This idea seems to come up on a regular basis, and I know I'd love
Hi Dick,
It doesn't work with 2.4.4, it's fixed in the latest snapshot

Hi Dick
Is it possible to create a config with rait writing and where the tape part
is done with some rotation (like few tapes with full backup) and one disk
tape with everyday full backup.
In this way I would have a fast recover procedure for the last day and do
the backup only once and not twice
Hi,
I am trying to test the rait output driver in amanda-2.4.4. I am trying
to get this to work, which, if I understand the rait driver, should work:
tapedev rait:{file:/backup,file:/mirror}
But I get:
$ amlabel Tapeless Tape00
rewinding, reading label, not an amanda tape
rewinding, writing
Just wondering if RAIT would allow 'RAIT 1' type thing where you can write
two tapes at the same time (one goes offsite, for example). At the moment we
have to run a loopy dd script to copy the original tape..
That's the behavior if you just specify two drives, like:
rait:{/dev/nst0,/dev/nst1
