Hi agian
I now got it.
almost :-)
My Friday tapes i.e weeklySets their amanda.conf will have level 0
and thus I just pull out the last Friday of the month for archiving.
and run amlabel to create the pulled tape.
dumpcycle 5 # 4/5 Friday tapes last tape to be pulled.
runspercycle 5 # 4 tapes for mon to thurs in rotation
tapecycle 14 # one tape for errors and one for cleaning before being
overwritten.
maxdumps 1
You probably want:
dumpcycle 0 # just to force a full dump allways
runspercycle 1 # just a number
tapecycle 14 # how many tapes you have in this config
I think you're mixing up the meaning of maxdumps with something else:
this has little to do with the scheduling of backups, only with
concurrency during a run.
My Mon to Thursday dailysets will have their unqiue amanda.conf file
dumpcycle 5
runspercycle 4 # 4 tapes for mon to thurs.
tapecycle 6 # tape for errors and one for cleaning
dumpcycle 1 week
runspercycle 4
tapecycle 6
Im getting there.
closer and closer indeed.
