Hello there, I mentioned amanda runs only one dump of computer/partition the same time. Is there any way configure amanda to run many dumps at once for different computers? I have 6 computers to backup in disklist, it's about 4 partitions per computer, backup takes long time to finish, I want to speed it up by running parallel dumps to different computers.
Actually, that's the default behaviour of amanda: doing as much as possible in parallel. Why do you think it is not working that way? One of the possibilities is that the holdingdisk is too small. The parallelism is achieved by collecting all the dumps to holdingdisk. If you want more than one dump running on one host in parallel, you should increase maxdumps for that DLE, and set a spindle number on each DLE. -- Paul Bijnens, Xplanation Tel +32 16 397.511 Technologielaan 21 bus 2, B-3001 Leuven, BELGIUM Fax +32 16 397.512 http://www.xplanation.com/ email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] *********************************************************************** * I think I've got the hang of it now: exit, ^D, ^C, ^\, ^Z, ^Q, F6, * * quit, ZZ, :q, :q!, M-Z, ^X^C, logoff, logout, close, bye, /bye, * * stop, end, F3, ~., ^]c, +++ ATH, disconnect, halt, abort, hangup, * * PF4, F20, ^X^X, :D::D, KJOB, F14-f-e, F8-e, kill -1 $$, shutdown, * * init 0, kill -9 1, Alt-F4, Ctrl-Alt-Del, AltGr-NumLock, Stop-A, ... * * ...
