Hi,
I am currently using the deprecated method noted in the wiki howto to
backup AFS volumes. It seems to work and I have rebuilt the amanda RPMS
from source to incorporate the gtar-wrapper.pl that is part of the
amanda-afs package as well as built an amanda-afs RPM and required it as
a dependency of my amanda packages. Amrecover doesn't seem to like
whatever gtar-wrapper does but the volume backups are there on tape and
I can restore them with amrestore.
However I've decided to take the advice from the howto link and ask on
this list: Is anyone else doing this? Is there an Application API
application now available to do this instead? I'd probably be willing
to put some effort into helping out with any such project.
