Hi,
I'm new to Amanda and I'm finding the Documentation difficult to
navigate. I have a large nas disk to use for backup as well as a dell
tape library. I'd like to backup to disk and also to tape for offsite
backups. What is the best configuration scenario for this?
I've read about a holding disk and virtual tapes for disk, but haven't
seen anything that specifically addresses a disk and tape scenario.
Can someone provide guidance and/or a link to documentation for setting
up such a scenario?

You could either do a separate configuration, and a whole separate backup to
tape —
or, lookup “amarchive” which copies a disk backup to a tape.
Additional note: I agree, some better howtos/docs/etc would really help
users get started using amanda's features. Especially when it comes to
the combined usage of tapes/disks/libraries (the scenarios change
slightly from tape-only to more disk-based setups).
Some time ago (see thread "tapes and external disks: how to combine all
this" above ...) I somehow talked about writing such a howto ;-) Maybe
this is a good reminder.
