Couldn't find this anywhere in the FAQ-O-Matic, but I'd welcome
a pointer if an answer is already floating around somewhere.

I'd like to keep all the dump images on disk even after they
get written to tape. My reasoning is that a large percentage
of the restore requests I get from my users could be satisfied
by files from the last day or two. If those files were still
on disk, I could restore them without carrying a tape down to
the machine room ;)

Of course, I can't keep the files around indefinitely, so I
imagine them getting rotated out after one or two days, depending
on how much disk space I have to spare on the holding disk.

Does amanda have a built-in way to do this, or does anyone have
a hack to accomplish something close?

Thanks,
Nick
