Hi,
is it possible to define (in a dumptype) what holding disk to use?
I have a server which backups itself and this server has two raid
arrays. I placed a holding disk on each of the arrays. Now amanda
shouldn't use the holding disk on array one while backuping this
array...
Is there some configuration option I have missed?
My own preference is to configure the system with separate drives for
holding disk. There is no reason for them to be raid. With a separate
spindle, they will be fast. If they are on a separate controller, even
faster. I happen to have my tape drive, my holding disks, and my network
all on separate controllers/buses, so there is virtually no contention.
I get the maximum throughput on my tape and on my holding disks. All
Ultra320 LVD SCSI on a Sun Enterprise server.
When amanda is not running I can use the holding disk space for other
maintenance tasks, recoveries, etc.
