Use a different strategy for week and friday.
eg . strategy nofull # on the week, could be 'incronly'
strategy standard # on friday
Editing the disklist or amanda.conf is not an easy solution, but you can
do the following:
If all DLE inherit from a 'my_strategy' dumptype, you could add the
following to amanda.conf:
define dumptype my_strategy {
strategy nofull
}
You then execute 'amdump <conf>' on the week.
And on friday, you execute:
'amdump <conf> -oDUMPTYPE:my_strategy:strategy=standard'

Hi,
I'd like to know if there is a way to enforce the use of a level of
backup different than level 0?
I'd like to reserve a particulier diskset for the weekend (bigger and
backup is long), I know how to force level 0 on friday night (amadmin
conf force host diskset) but during the week, amanda decides to back
it up with level 0 which is annoying for tape management and it
doesn't fit the night.
So is there a way to make sure amanda won't use level 0 Monday to
Friday and level 0 on Friday?
Thanks for your time, patience and answers.
Franck.
