I am currently backing up Windows clients using the Amanda index
server, a Sun Ultra 250 named "rockfirm". I want to see if I get a
performance gain by offloading the smbclient stuff to "rocksolid", a
4-way Ultra 450. (I use 'comp-user-tar', so there is some compression
involved).
Can I simply rewrite the 'disklist' file and move the appropriate
subdirectories from one machine to the other? So:
index/rockfirm/__smbclient_share/ to
index/rocksolid/__smbclient_share/
and
curinfo/rockfirm/__smbclient_share/ to
curinfo/rocksolid/__smbclient_share/
It seems that backup/dumpcycle bookkeeping would be OK, but how about
recovery? Will I be able to recover files this way?
Thanks,

PS. I will summarize any answers to the Faq-O-Matic, unless asked
otherwise.
