yes, amrecover uses disklist.
To accomplish what you want, i would do the following: add an excludelist to the dle "/mydisk/bigdir" excluding "/mydsik/bigdir/smalldir[1-n]" and leave it in the disklist. this way you get 2 for the price of one: - amanda will happily restore the old backups, - if somehow a new dir gets created in "/mydisk/bigdir" and you miss to give it his own dle-entry it will get catched by the dle with the excludelist, and you'll see its size increase in your daily mailreports.....

Hi, amanda-users,
I want to change some DLEs from
/mydisk/bigdir
to
/mydisk/bigdir/smalldir1 /mydisk/bigdir/smalldir2 /mydisk/bigdir/smalldir3 .......
Will I be able to access the backups of /mydisk/bigdir on the older tapes I took out of the rotation already?
Is it possible to find them with amrecover?
Or does amrecover use disklist?
Thank you, Stefan G. Weichinger mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
