hi,

My question is quite simple...
can we enable the hard-compression of the tape after using  the soft
compression in amanda
for a while.

soft compression =   comp-user in the disklist and /dev/rmt/0bn
hard compression = nocomp-user in the disklist and /dev/rmt/0cbn

One of the problems that I see is :
Imagine that the dump0 was happenning when we were doing a software
compression and
that the dump1 with a hard compression...So when we will recover the
data, amrecover
will use the amanda.conf which contain the hard-compression...so the
system will be able
to only read one of them...

So I will be constrain to do the recover manually

1)any idea on how to do it
2)do you see any other problems

thanks in advance briner
