Re: Amanda inside a Virtual Machine?

[Greg Troxel]

I run amanda clients in Xen domUs all the time with no issues.  For the
server/tape drive question, the question is really: can one configure
the virtualization system so that the virtual machine on which you want
to run an amanda server has a tape drive?  This is all about your VM
system and pretty much nothing about amanda.  If so, it will work fine,
and if not, not at all.
