I'm setting up an amanda system, and I'm a little confused by the jargon. What I'm trying to do is one full backup a week (on Fridays) and partial backups every other weeknight. I want to operate four weeks of tapes in rotation, so at any time we have four weeks of backup down to the granularity of one day.
Am I right in thinking that this is a dump cycle of 7 days, with 5 runs per cycle and 4 tapes per run? Sorry if this is alarmingly obvious, I'm pretty new to all this :) Alex -- Mail: Alex Page <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Real: Systems/Network Assistant, Epidemiology Unit, Oxford Tel: 01865 302 223 (external) / 223 (internal) PGP: 8868 21D7 3D35 DD77 9D06 BF0A 0746 2DE6 55EA 367E
