I have a number of very large file systems that require backups. One containing 74GB of data and the other containing 65GB both have the potential to grow to 168GB in time. The backups are currently failing to backup those partitions to a single tape. I have another DLT7000 tape drive that I can pull into the config but I'm not sure how amanda can handle this. Reading through the docs it seems you can use libraries but not really multiple standalone units. Even at that I'm not sure it can split a single dump or partition across 2 tapes.. Can someone out there offer some assistance?
If that fails is it possible to still use ufsdump on the Solaris 8 client but split the partition by backing up parts instead of the full disk? Either way the partitions will only grow further so I'm very open to any suggestions. Thanks! Trevor.
