Hi.
You wrote in the Amanda FAQ:
``This can be wasteful, specially if you have a small amount of data to back
up, but expensive large-capacity tapes. One possible approach is to run
amdump with tapes only, say once a week, to perform full backups, and run it
without tape on the other days, so that it performs incremental backups and
stores them in the holding disk. Once or twice a week, you flush all backups
in the holding disk to a single tape.''
Can you expand on this? What should I use for the cycle parameters in
amanda.conf? How should I flush the incrementals in the holding disk to
tape? Thanks,
Ben
