Hi Luis, in my opinion you should etsablish the following solution: 1) Intstall backup-server with enough disk space 2) Create virtuall tapes on the disks 3) Let amanda backup to the virtual tapes (one configuration) You have to decide in which cycles amanda makes full backups. 4) In a second amanda configuration you let amanda dump forced level 0 backups of the virtual disks to tape.
Probably a starting point. Best regards Andreas Mock >>> Luis Rodrigues <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> 04.05.2006 15:52:07 >>> Hello. I've just started a job at a new company. They have an backup system with everyday copies the touched files to a disk on a backup server and on the weekend it makes a 0 level to tape. They say the system is not really relayable because some times they don't find the files an want a new one. So I will install amanda. The problem is that they want to keep the old backup touched files each day and zero level on the weekend. In http://www.amanda.org/docs/topten.html#id2552255 says this is not possible. So I will use amanda with a weekly cycle so that at saturday everyting is backuedup. But I still need to incremental backup the touched files since last inscremental, is it possible to force amanda to (in its runs during week) first copy to backup server the touched files and them some others? If so what will happen if a file is changed two times in one week? Thanks in advance. Luis
