I am running Amanda 2.4.5p1 server on Solaris 10 sparc.
The email from my last daily backup listed the following
These dumps were to tapes daily:100011, daily:100012, daily:100013,
daily:100014.
The next 4 tapes Amanda expects to use are: a new tape, daily:100016,
daily:100017, daily:100018.

I must say that my first thought really was the chicken ;-).

It should work with both (I always used tar).

I have enough disk space.
My problem it that they need incremental (everday) backup of touched files and
I have no ideia
how to do it.
I could do 0 level every day to virtual tapes but that is just a wast of space
and time.

Hi Luis,
in my opinion you should etsablish the following solution:
1) Intstall backup-server with enough disk space
2) Create virtuall tapes on the disks
3) Let amanda backup to the virtual tapes (one configuration)
You have to decide in which cycles amanda makes full backups.
4) In a second aman
Hello.
I've just started a job at a new company. They have an backup system with
everyday copies the touched files

They say the system is not really relayable because some times they don't find

Hi all,
we're dumping with tar. Now it happens that we have to have
a disklist entry with spaces in the diskname or diskdevice.
The parser seems to have trouble with this.

Is this possible? If yes, how?
Thank you in advance.
Best regards

We would need to see what is in the dumptype comp-root-tar, but from
the name, I would guess that the dump is made using gtar, so to
restore you should also use gtar, not retore.
amrestore -p /dev/nst0 host /filesystem | tar --numeric-owner
I've previously seen Amanda installed in such a way that you could run
something like
amrestore -p /dev/nst0 host /filesystem | restore ivf -
Which gives a basic shell on the tape so you can restore individual
items. I understand that this was possible because comp-root backup had
been used on a

In which FAQ did you find that? (Just to update the docs.)
Yes, Amanda 2.5.0 can span dumps across multiple tapes.
