Hi experts, I came to know that amanda client/agent crawls the file system under the given path to get the list of files that have changed since the previous backup. But in my use case because of the file system size (in several TBs using any of the clustered file system) I can't afford crawl every time. But there is a utility I use, which gives me list of files changed for any given two points in time. My main question here is that,
Is there any method I could use to provide the list of files changed to the amanda client so that I can avoid amanda from crawling? If its there can I have some pointers to go through it? Thanks Varun Shastry PS: I agree, for full fledged backup crawling suggested, but with the above method I can at least avoid crawling for differential/incremental backups.
