$ man amadmin
estimate [ hostname [ disks ]* ]*
Print the server estimate for the dles, each output lines
have the
following format:
hostname diskname level size
Server estimate can only be computed if you already backed up the dles
a few time.
If you want to run the real estimate, you can try:
/path/to/planner CONF
and try to understand its output.

Hi,
I'm trying to use amadmin's estimate command to get an idea if my DLE
entries are correct.
For example:
I want one DLE with all dirs starting with a, except for ./aguirre,
then another with just ./aguirre
cfile.uphs.upenn.edu <http://cfile.uphs.upenn.edu> jet-a
/mnt/jet716s_1/jet-export/ {
gui-base
include "./[a]*"
exclude "./aguirre/"
}
cfile.uphs.upenn.edu <http://cfile.uphs.upenn.edu> jet-aguirre
/mnt/jet716s_1/jet-export/ {
gui-base
include "./aguirre/"
}
This looks fine:
[amandabackup@cback ~]$ amadmin jet1 disklist cfile jet-a | less
line 8 (/etc/amanda/jet1/disklist):
host cfile.uphs.upenn.edu <http://cfile.uphs.upenn.edu>:
interface default
disk jet-a:
<snip>
EXCLUDE LIST
EXCLUDE FILE "./aguirre/"
INCLUDE LIST
INCLUDE FILE "./[a]*"
<snip>
But then
[amandabackup@cback ~]$ amadmin jet1 estimate cfile jet-a
cfile.uphs.upenn.edu <http://cfile.uphs.upenn.edu> jet-a 0 2258244750
shows the size of all ./[a]* dirs, including ./aguirre
and then
[amandabackup@cback ~]$ amadmin jet1 estimate cfile jet-aguirre
doesn't output anything.
Also, this command returns instantly - I'm not sure how it could now
the size of the DLE instantly after I make changes to it. In fact, if
I change the jet-a DLE to include ./[a-b]*, the estimate command
instantly returns the same value. Do I need to tell amanda to
reprocess the disklist file?
Thanks
