One unique
thing it does is that it uses and "incremental forever" backup strategy. It

that's the way we used it)<--(I could be wrong about that).

Thanks Gordon. Tivoli sounds like an interesting enterprise system.
"incremental forever" is a feature I've heard of in some other
backup systems. I wouldn't expect that to fit the mol

Hi Ronald,
We have a Dell Powervault 110T using 1 TB tapes and Amanda is working
lovely with it. (except for some hiccups with ssh auth) Depending on
how your data is distributed, you are going to want to change your size
estimation method.

Ronald,
Search on amanda-users archive. There were couple of recent threads on
using Dell PowerVault with Amanda.

Hello again:
Well, it looks like we are going to be getting a Dell PowerVault-124T to
get started due to $$. Is anyone on this list using the PowerVault-124T
(or any of the Dell PowerVault drives) with Amanda? Do you like this
unit?
Thanks,

Hi Ross:
The 4TB will be the initial phase of our go live period. We envision
going to 15-20TB during the first two years. Oh yes, this will be the
backup system for our cluster and all other servers. We are looking at
tape hardware solutions from multiple manufacturers (24-50 tape libraries)
