Joshua already pointed you to the bump parameters. I just wish to point out that they will not prevent higher backup levels, but make it more difficult, possibly extremely difficult, for amanda to bump to the next level. That would also include level 2 and maybe level 1 as well. One change I'm considering is for my indirect clients (smbclient backed up Windows OS) setting bumpdays to some high value. With the longer dumpcycle I've set I'm finding these "claim" to go to level 4. But as I understand it, samba based backups are only full or incremental, no levels. So these levels are artificial if that is correct. -- Jon H. LaBadie [EMAIL PROTECTED] JG Computing 4455 Province Line Road (609) 252-0159 Princeton, NJ 08540-4322 (609) 683-7220 (fax)
