Hello, Two things;
On one hand, I have been thinking about running amanda once a week for totals directly to tape, and the rest of weekdays without tapes so incrementals are sent to holding disk, and then before next total on friday with tapes, I do amflush... Would that work nicely? I ask cause seems that amanda balances the backup on her own, but I cannot spend expensive DLT40/80 tapes with 2 gigs of incrementals only. Also, with amflush, will indexes be maintained without any trouble? So index server finds stuff as if they were on separated tapes. On the other hand, is there any irc channel for amanda? It's a nice way of sharing problems and stuff real-time. If there isnt any, what about #amanda at irc.openprojects.org? Regards...
