dumpcycle 2 weeks runspercycle 10 And set tapecycle to however many tapes you have. You need at least 10 (obviously), but really need at least a couple more in case of bad dumps (requiring an amflush), etc. This would also work: dumpcycle 1 week runspercycle 5 tapecycle 12 You'd still have your two week history, it would just contain more level 0s. It all depends on how much data you have. -- Joshua Baker-LePain Department of Biomedical Engineering Duke University
