Taperflush bug in 3.2.2?

2011-04-04 Thread Dennis Benndorf 
Hello @all,

after updating to 3.2.2 amanda uses more tapes (LTO4) as expected:

USAGE BY TAPE:
  Label   Time Size  %  DLEs Parts
  D3  2:32  797382M  100.4   137   279
  D1  0:30  190514M   24.0 038


Here is my config:

flush-threshold-dumped 0
flush-threshold-scheduled 100
taperflush 100
autoflush yes

So it should wait until the next dump and fill the tapes completely, shouldnt 
it?

Regards,
Dennis

Amanda do not append to tape, it will never fill a tape written by 
another run.


If the question is, Why it use two tapes in that run?
It could be:
 because flush-threshold-dumped is set to 0. FLUSH it to tape as soon 
as it is dumped.

 because it is doing a dump direct to tape.
 because the holding is not large enough.
