Good morning list, I'm starting a huge video project and need to archive hundreds of gigs of captured video footage to DLT for later retrieval and editing. Amanda looks like it may do what I want but had a few quick questions about it.
-Per browsing the conf file, amanda includes tape set and rotation functionality. Is there a way to bypass or ignore this? My workflow will be to archive big chunks of stuff and set it aside forever, perhaps restore it once or twice. I'm interested in it's tape labelling and cataloging though, so I can keep track of tape usage and wear -the DLT tapes I have are already used. does amanda have any facility for checking tape integrity before use? Otherwise I just plan of having it verify the backups. -I have an Adic Fastor DLT4 seven tape changer. Has anyone had luck getting this to run (with changer) in amanda? Thanks for any help!
