Hi,

I recently added a directory to be backed up and this is the message that
I get..

I have a holding disk with 15GB space (reserving 30% for degraded mode
dumps) and I am using a Surestore DAT 24 tape drive with DDS-3 tapes.

I saw the work around in the FAQ, but google turned up this
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/amanda-users/message/30947

which said that it may have something to do with the tape definition which
is...


define tapetype HP-DAT24 {
        comment "HP SureStore DAT 24" #disabled compression
        length 12288 mbytes
        filemark 0 kbytes
        speed 1024 kbytes
}


So, it would seem that even if the Level 1 dump is 5.8 gigs (according to
the planner) I shuold be able to handle it.

Does anyone know how to correct this?

Thanks and best regards,
Jason Pickering

Here is the report...

reading thisleads me to the question:
is it possible you have this DLE (jtlinux.SI //yinling/MyDocuments) mentioned two times in your disklist?
this is not the list from planner, it shows you what got dumped.
One line for evrey line in disklist.
and if i summarize the sizes in this mail, i get to something around 11GB of data,
so the message telling you the dumps won't fit looks correct to me.
