If you add DLEs to the disklist, I suggest you add a few at a time so that Amanda can absorb the new ones gracefully. It will try to do level 0 (total) backups with new entries. You don't want to swamp your holding disk or tape drive by adding too many at once. -- Charles Curley /"\ ASCII Ribbon Campaign Looking for fine software \ / Respect for open standards and/or writing?
