Hey all,
Still going through my learning curve and I'm studying dumptypes by looking
at the examples.
How/why does amanda differentiate between a root partition and a user
partition?
e.g.
define dumptype root-tar {
global
program "GNUTAR"
comment "root partitions dumped with tar"
compress none
index
priority low
}
define dumptype user-tar {
root-tar
comment "user partitions dumped with tar"
priority medium
}
Other than user-tar depending on the existence of and inheriting root-tar
parameters, and having different priority levels, is there any other
difference between the two? Are DLEs using each treated differently
somehow?
If not, then it seems to me that maybe the comment might be better
explained as:
comment "low priority dumped with tar" and "medium priority dumped with tar"
Or am I getting hung up on semantics and I should worry about more
important things?
