Am I understanding correctly that in order to have amdump schedule dumps
for copying to the vault (thus avoiding the need to run "amvault"
separately), I have to define a "vault" option for the main storage?
(In partiular, if my main storage is the implicitely-generated one named
after my config name, I still need have a "define storage" section for
it in order to include the "vault" option there?)
Also, is this summary correct?:
1) the "vault" option on the main storage tells amdump the storage(s)
which should automatically "get sent" copies of the dumps as they
are written to the main storage
2) the "dump-selection" option on the vault storage definition then
controls which of those "main" dumps actually get written to that
vault storage.
3) the "vault-storage" option controls whether the dumps selected in
step 2) are automatically written to the vault storage as part of
the normal amdump run?
Thanks.
