Brian, Yes, initially I was using holdingdisk for all config. But when I see backup is low and taking more time, I had doubt that my backup & holdingdisk are on same disk (NAS) which is 19TB. So I change it & force not to use it.
But now I realized its required so I will use for next usage of Amanda. Could someone let me know use of chunksize ? It should big enough like 10GB or 50GB ? As I am using Vtape, finally all these temporary files are going to merge into one file. So why should we create these chunks ? Why not let dumper directly dump into final vtape's slot directory ?
