I want to use Amanda to backup my machines, if I backup everything it will take up three tapes. I do not have a tape changer and therefore need to change the tapes manually this works fine with chg-manual, except I cannot start the backup with a cron job. What I would like to happen is to schedule the backup to run at 12:00am and then when the next tape is required it sends me an email, then I put the next one in and it carries on, or even better it carries on where it left of the next night.
Is this possible? if so how?
