3.3.0
Is there a mechanism that permits altering a common / shared changer
definition's "use-slots" parameter to support daily / weekly configurations?
One description of a solution would be:
-- DAILY/amanda.conf
define changer mychanger {
tpchanger "commonchanger"
property "use-slots" "1-32"
}
-- WEEKLY/amanda.conf
define changer mychanger {
tpchanger "commonchanger"
property "use-slots" "33-36"
}
--- amanda.conf.main
tapedev "mychanger"
define changer commonchanger {
tpchanger "chg-robot:/dev/sg5"
property "tape-device" "0=tape:/dev/nst0"
}
This approach doesn't work, of course (tpchanger is not a known type). The old
chg-zd-mtx scripts handled this with separate changer.conf files. I haven't
succeeded in parsing out a solution from the docs, and thought I'd check before
duplicating the changer definition in each amanda.conf file ...
TIA.
