Can someone send me a working example?
I'm using a Sony TSL-A500c, 4-tape AIT-II changer, on a RedHat Linux box with chg-multi. From my amanda.conf: runtapes 1 # number of tapes to be used in a single run of amdump tpchanger "chg-multi" # the tape-changer glue script tapedev "/dev/ntape" # the no-rewind tape device to be used rawtapedev "/dev/null" # the raw device to be used (ftape only) changerfile "chg-multi.conf" changerdev "/dev/ntape" In the directory with amanda.conf my chg-multi.conf file is: multieject 0 gravity 0 needeject 1 ejectdelay 60 statefile changer-status firstslot 1 lastslot 4 slot 1 /dev/ntape slot 2 /dev/ntape slot 3 /dev/ntape slot 4 /dev/ntape I don't think I had to change the chg-multi file. I run an amcheck -s each afternoon after the backups and it advances to the appropriate tape. -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] - HMC UNIX Systems Manager My opinions are my own and probably don't represent anything anyway.
