In case anyone is interested i made a post about LTO-5 tapes that includes
example configs for amanda that uses aes-256-ctr with password and zstd
compression
https://www.eevblog.com/forum/general-computing/lto-tape-usage-(modern-tape-drives)/
Main points for the config, these two scripts are called from amanda.
cat encrypt, use with server_encrypt "/whatever/encrypt":
#!/bin/sh
AMANDA_HOME=~amanda
PASSPHRASE=$AMANDA_HOME/.am_passphrase # required
RANDFILE=$AMANDA_HOME/.rnd
export RANDFILE
if [ "$1" = -d ]; then
/usr/bin/openssl enc -pbkdf2 -d -aes-256-ctr -salt -pass fd:3 3<
"${PASSPHRASE}"
else
/usr/bin/openssl enc -pbkdf2 -e -aes-256-ctr -salt -pass fd:3 3<
"${PASSPHRASE}"
fi
cat zstd-compression3, use with server_custom_compress
"/whatever/zstd-compression3 :
#!/bin/sh
if [[ "$1" == "-d" ]]; then
zstd -dqcf
else
zstd -qc -3 -T0
fi
