Sorry if my last post is confusing I have confused myself lately. Howto get Amanda to back up individual servers large directories as seperate Disk List Entries (DLEs) using tar (GNUTAR) to the backup servers hard drives but another server to DLT cartridge for off site storage.
I will be purchasing a 80GB DLT drive and a dedicated backup server with two 80GB scsi hard drives. 1) I want to backup our main file server onto the 80GB DLT drive. 2) I want backup The 80gb web server and 80gb mail server to the two 80gb drives on the backup server not the 80gb DLT drive. 3) Would this be possible as I want a robust final solution that is affordable and maintainable for upgrades etc etc. Cheers -- Unix/ Linux Systems Administrator Chuck Amadi The Surgical Material Testing Laboratory (SMTL), Princess of Wales Hospital Coity Road Bridgend, United Kingdom, CF31 1RQ.
