Hi Jean-Louis,
before your email arrived, I was testing something different.
I copied the whole ~/pictures tree back to the Linux formatted disk,
and tested all 5 disks in disklist
ere or how to look for solutions are welcome. As far as I can see,
the new disklist and amanda.conf do not differ in essence from the
previous instalment when they were part of a single backup setup which
worked flawless (but with ~/pictures on a different linux formatted
disk). Strange.

Is there an easy way to get this option added to tar in amanda, or do I

Hi,
I am using amanda with DDS tapes without h/w compression and during
boot the compression is disabled using mt. I noticed however a
different behaviour between the mt in the cpio 2.6 package (in opensuse
10.2) and the version 2.9 which is in opensuse 11.1.
The command is "mt -f [dev] datcompr

Both PCs are switched off over night and are rebooted every day,
no change. Still it does work now and it did not over the last
