tapedev=otherhost:/dev/nst0 ?
Hi Can I build amanda server in a host without tape and use some other host tapes? The goal is to save the tapeserver (the machine that has the tape device) from CPU load when using "compression best" Just like "tar cf otherhost:/dev/nst0 /disk2dump" Regards
How to write a wrapper for GNUtar (or smbclient)
Hi I want to write a wrapper (if there is no better solution) to inform windows users that they will be backed up so they have a chance to close its databases, mainly (MS-Outlook .pst files) The idea is that with a disklist file like .. smb-server //workstation1/documents smb-server //workstation2/documents smb-server //workstation3/documents smb-server //workstation4/documents I want to be able to send a popup windows (via smbclient -M) to inform user of workstationN he has to close its applications (then sleep some seconds) and another popup when finished. - Warn workstation1 user ; sleep 10 - run this station backup - Inform user he can continue working - Repeat for every machine. Have somebody did this? Any ideas? Jordi
amrecover, cannot use "cd A windows dir with spaces"
Hello amrecover interface seems to be unable to cd to dirs with spaces in its names, I tried quotes, backslashes ... Any suggestion? add command with wildcards work fine. Other question, can I recover directly to clients (windows) or must I recover to a tmp dir then share it and copy from win client? Regards
Re: tapedev=otherhost:/dev/nst0 ?
Thank for your reply I know the "client best" option but it dont fit my needs. The clients are Windowses, and I have a spare Linux not in production to carry the load compression.

That makes the clients do the > compression, not the tape server.

Hi
"amcheck Test-SMB" works fine, but when I do de amdump I got an empy
schedule. I'ved run amclenup and rm over log/tapelist/amdump files and
reset to 0 the tapelist
This is the report: ==
*** THE DUMPS DID NOT FINISH PROPERLY!
These dumps were to tape Test-SMB-001.
The next tape Amanda expects to use is: a new tape.
