hello,
okay, I see, you don't use the amanda-commands directly. Do I get it right, that
in the above example you have a wrapper to start dumps? How do you treat
amreports? Do you wrap them too?
Actually I don't want to do something like that, I'm starting amdump via cronjob
(okay, matter of fact I do use a wrapper-script to change the data-link to the
correct virtual-tape, amcheck -c and then start amdump), but I'm letting amanda
do what it's supposed to do: Backup my clients and send a report about it.
I was hoping of a way to let amanda recognize _directly_ that "file changed as
we read it" is no error :)
