If I do a flush or dump, and nothing gets written to tape, can I simply change the tapelist so the tape I just tried to dump to can be reused, or will that screw things up?
I've been using amanda for a while to flushes and restores, but this is my first stab at the configuration..
thanks for your help so far. Matt. Jon LaBadie wrote:

To me it appears that it is just taking that long to create the tar..... ???thanks for your response :).tar has great performance issues with directories containing many small files. I think the alternative, faster ways of estimating are accurate for level 0 dumps (others may correct my conception if wrong) and use historical data for the incrementals. Your incrementals seem pretty small (10-20% of the level 0) so that I suspect any error in those estimates would be acceptable. Where you run into problems is a DLE that changes a lot pretty often, but not always. It is amazing the difference the alternatives can make in estimate time.
