Here's a question i have created a new configuration file for a second run that will be a full offsite run. My requirements are to have a) a full run once a week b) a rotation of 3 weeks before re-writing to a tape in the tape list. here are my current parameters in amanda.conf dumpcycle 0 weeks # the number of days in the normal dump cycle runspercycle 3 # the number of amdump runs in dumpcycle days -- i believe this should be "0" too.
tapecycle 4 tapes # the number of tapes in rotation My question is considering the dumpcycle is 0 would i be able to restore from a tape that is 2 weeks old? I believe the answer is yes becuase i dont think amanda expires data on a tape? Thanks, Anderson
