Thanks for Reading!!
I am having some difficulties on understanding dumps. I'm coming
from an Arkeia and ArcServe background and some of the terminology is
confusing me. My question is, how do I configure the disklist file so I
don't hit EOT?? Am I on the right track here, or totally off?? Here's my
setup:
RH 7.2 with approx 180 GB of disk space available, with about 25 GB used.
Two Exabyte Eliant 820s tape drives that are 8 GB native. ( I know, get
bigger drives!! I will... )
Mount list:
/dev/sda5 on / type ext3 (rw)
none on /proc type proc (rw)
usbdevfs on /proc/bus/usb type usbdevfs (rw)
/dev/sda1 on /boot type ext3 (rw)
/dev/sdb2 on /data type ext3 (rw)
none on /dev/pts type devpts (rw,gid=5,mode=620)
/dev/sdb1 on /home type ext3 (rw)
none on /dev/shm type tmpfs (rw)
/dev/sda2 on /usr type ext3 (rw)
/dev/sda6 on /var type ext3 (rw)
/dev/cdrom on /mnt/cdrom type iso9660 (ro)
In my disklist file, I've tried to do the following:
localhost /dev/sda comp-high
When I run amdump from the command line, it always reports that
/dev/sda is offline. When I put sda1, it works just fine. Yes the amanda
user is in the disk group and that group has read access to the device. The
last thing I'm confused on right now is how to use my second tape drive.
What I'd like to do is when the first one finishes, Amanda will run another
dump to the second drive.
If there's other info you need, just ask and I will provide.
