I am getting ready to install amanda-3.2.3 and want to start using the
part_size tape splitting to get better tape usage.
Question1: is device_property = device-property and part_size = part-size i.e.
is "_" and "-" interchangeable in the amanda.conf parameter names?
Question2: below is a snippet of my amanda.conf file with the LEOM and
part_size. Is this correct. I use a holding disk for everything so I assume I
donot need to define any part_cache settings?
define changer "c4" {
tpchanger "chg-robot:/dev/changer/0"
changerfile "chg-zd-mtx-state"
property "tape-device" "0=tape:/dev/rmt/0cbn"
property "eject-before-unload" "true"
property "eject-delay" "10"
property "unload-delay" "10"
property "use-slots" "1-30"
property "load-poll" "0s poll 5s until 120s"
device-property "BLOCK_SIZE" "1 mbytes"
device-property "LEOM" "true"
}
:
:
define tapetype LTO2-HWC {
comment "LTO-2-Hardware Compression on."
length 350000 mbytes #350G compressed
filemark 0 kbytes
speed 27315 kps #27 Mb/s
part_size 40GB
}
Thanks
Robert
