Dear All,
I want to use "strategy noinc" with an "archive" configuration, to
get full dumps only.
We run 2 configurations:
1. "normal" daily backup with a dumpcycle of 25 tapes (~1 month).
2. "archive" weekly backup with a dumpcycle of 150 tapes (~3 years).
We dump ~120Gb onto With software compression onto 5 12Gb DAT3
tapes, ie ~20% of our data per week.
We do not want incrementals in the archive as they would be against
"normal" (daily) configuration backups which we reuse after a month.
Sadly the Amanda 2.4.1 change log (fragment appended) shows
"strategy noinc" is not implemented yet (see below).
Using "dumpcycle 0" I still see incrementals in the archive backup.
I have considered "bumpsize inf" to stop incrementals.
I welcome help resolving this.
Thanks
Julian
