Hi Paul,
I just had a thought - at the moment you could fudge that I think by using
the FILE: device. Amanda does backups to disk by using the FILE: device in a
very similar manner to a tape drive. You'd have a process which watched the
FILE: devices data directory and took files from it as soon as they appeared
and wrote them to two separate tape drives.
OK - that's the science - the rest is just engineering.
Kindest regards,

P.S. Of course this is a kludge, no, sorry, it's a KLUDGE but if you're in a
hurry for this functionality . . . .
