I'm new to Amanda and I'm preparing to rotate tapes for the first time. I
have an autoloader that holds 10 tapes all under the amanda.conf as
DailySet1. And I just ordered 10 more (new) tapes, but I'm not clear as to
when do I pull out tapes and put in the new ones???
I currently have these dump cycle settings and my intention is for the fulls
to occur every 5 days
dumpcycle 5 days
runspercycle 5
tapecycle 10 tapes
My crontab is set to run each day at the same time. /etc/crontab:
45 16 * * 1-7 amanda amcheck -m DailySet1
59 23 * * 1-7 amanda amdump DailySet1
Questions:
1) Do I unload all 10 tapes?
a) if yes, then do I create a DailySet2???
b) if no, then which ones?
