Okay....what are the settings for getting a full once every 3 days with backups 5 nights a week and 16 tapes?
I tried dumpcycle 3 days runspercycle 3 tapecycle 16 tapes but that gives me fulls of everyone on Monday and what I want Tues thru Friday. I think the problem is when it fires up on Monday it thinks it is 2 days behind. How can I tell it to discount Saturday and Sunday? My cron file runs amdump Mon-Fri. Would dumpcycle 1 week runspercycle 3 tapecycle 16 tapes work better?
