Hi,
I've just started running Amanda. But, it looks like Amanda has
overwritten a full dump with an incremental, which seems wrong? For
/export/home on host stheno why is Daily112 listed as having both a full
(lv0) and incremental (lv3)? If I start an amrecover, I am only prompted
for Daily112Is Amanda doing the right thing or is my
config wrong? Thanks.
bash-2.03$ ./amadmin daily info stheno /export/home/
Current info for stheno /export/home/:
Stats: dump rates (kps), Full: 1935.0, 1359.0, -1.0

and amrecover history shows no full dumps?

>From my amanda.config:
dumpcycle 7
runspercycle 5
tapecycle 6 tapes
/etc/amandates get written to at the time of the backup and contains (on
stheno):
/export 0 992014907
/export/home/ 0 992587772
/export/home/ 1 992690883
/export/home/ 2 992880883
/export/home/ 3 993108916
I have taken most of the default settings from the example config file
and
not set anything special like, the skip-full or skip-inc variables.
My dump type in user-tar, I think I just took it from the
example config file.
