Greetings,

we are using amanda for ~15 years now and I want to express my thanks to those who keep enhancing it.

At the moment I am looking at the new (for me) application-tool configuration option because I need to ignore device numbers with tar.

We use inheritance for the dumptypes and there is one very old client, a redhat 6.2 server. I cannot update amanda there easily, so the amanda client does not support application-tool. So I configure

define dumptype global {
  ...
  program "APPLICATION"
  application "app-amgtar"
  ...
}

and

define dumptype veryOldClient {
  program "GNUTAR"

}

amcheck tells me this:

"/etc/amanda/DailySet1/disklist", line 12: Both program and application set

How can I "unset" the "application" parameter from the inherited dumptype?

Thanks
Moritz
