Hi! So I'm pretty new to amandabackup and wanted to know if someone
could help me with something I'm seeing.
I have a small network, consisiting of ten clients and one server which
is the amanda backup server. I don't run anything but local backups of
an NFS shared space. The server has a HP LTO-5 tapedrive directly
attached and I was given 30 tapes in which to complete backups.
I'm the only admin on the network, so if I am out that day, no tapes get
put in the drive and when I arrive the next day, I see 100 emails from
amanda that makes me think amanda thinks I have a changer instead of a
single tape drive.
Here is my amanda.config:
org "DARSet"
mailto "admin@localhost"
dumpcycle 6week
runspercycle 5
tapechanger "chg-manual"
tapedev "/dev/nst0"
changerfile "/etc/amanda/DARSet/chg-manual.conf"
changerdev "/dev/null"
tapetype HP-LTO-5
labelstr "^DARSet[0-9][0-9]*$"
dtimeout 1800
ctimeout 30
etimeout 300
define dumptype global {
comment "Global Definitions"
auth "local"
}
define dumptype gui-base {
global
program "GNUTAR"
comment "gui base dumptype dumped with tar"
compress none
index yes
}
define tapetype HP-LTO-5 {
length 1480633696 kbytes
filemark 739 kbytes
speed 81970 kps
blocksize 32 kbytes
}
includefile "advanced.conf"
includefile "/etc/amanda/template.d/dumptypes"
includefile "/etc/amanda/template.d/tapetypes"
How can I tell amanda that it is a single drive? Thanks for any help!
Matt
