Now an additional obstacle:
one DLE (a Veeam Backup Dir, so I don't want to split it via "exclude"
or so) is larger than (a) one tape and (b) the holding disk.
DLE = 2.9 TB
holding disk = 2 TB
one tape = 2.4 TB (LTO6)
It seems that the tape device doesn't support LEOM ...
Amdump dumps the DLE directly to tape, fills it and fails with
" lev 0 partial taper: No space left on device, splitting not enabled
"
I am unsure how to set LEOM within:
define device lto6_drive {
tapedev "tape:/dev/nst0"
#device-property "BLOCK_SIZE" "2048K"
device-property "LEOM" "false"
}
define changer robot {
tpchanger "chg-robot:/dev/sg4"
#property "tape-device" "0=tape:/dev/nst0"
property "tape-device" "0=lto6_drive"
property "eject-before-unload" "yes"
property "use-slots" "1-8"
}
... makes amcheck happy.
additional for your checking eyes:
define tapetype LTO6 {
comment "Created by amtapetype; compression enabled"
length 2443520000 kbytes
filemark 868 kbytes
speed 157758 kps
blocksize 2048 kbytes
part_size 100G
part_cache_type memory
part_cache_max_size 8G # use roughly the amount of free RAM on your
system
}
We have 32 GB RAM in there so this should work?
