 on gnu/linux glibc.  I am dumping about 24 partitions, 12G total,
 no bigger than 2G per partition, in a 1 wk cycle on 12 2G tapes.

 Wow!  Mine are no bigger than ~200K, running 2.4.2p2 and dumping about 45 
 partitions at 50G total.


 Glad to hear that!  There's hope for my situation.


I wiped out the entire curindex info directories, crossed my
fingers, and started backing up from scratch.  The files are
indeed no larger than 250K.

Thanks for the help everyone.

Re: Mammoth-LT tape type

2001-11-26 Thread Ana Maria Escalante 

 I did not want to rediscover the black thread (as we say in spanish
:)), and thought that someone else may be using the same tape unit.
 I ran the tapetype during the weekend, and here is the result for
anyone else that may want it:

define tapetype EXA-MAM-LT {
comment just produced by tapetype program
length 13620 mbytes
filemark 32 kbytes
speed 2875 kps
}

 Thank you anyway. Sincerely ... Ana Maria

 Subject: Mammoth-LT tape type
 
 
  I am new to amanda. I have an Exabyte Mammoth-LT tape drive. I already
  searched trough the mailing list archives and through the tape type list
  at the amanda faq-o-matic, but have not been able to find the tape type
  for this Exabyte tape model.
   Does anybody has one of this working with amanda? Could you be so
  kind as to send me the tape type for this model?
   Thank you very much in advance. I will be looking forward to having
  news from you soon.
