Hi and thanks.
My english is not so good so i have to ask again.
When you say
You'll probably want runspercycle to match the dumpcycle, that will make
sure you have 2 generations of backups before a tapecycle of 14 would
overwrite the 2 week old vtapes.
Did you mean i must set runspercycle
Thanks!
That helped me.
I do the backup only weekdays so i set tapecycle to 14, runspercycle to 5
and dumpcycle to 7.
Runtapes is set to 1.
I use 300GB Vtapesthats enough for my Backups.

The simple answer is YES, or set it to less if you want more than 2
Generations in your 14 tapes.
The explanation is:
runspercycle is how many times will backups be run during dumpcycle.
So it can be any number less than or equal to dumpcycle.
If you have tapecycle 14 tapes then you are going
You guys helped me very much!

Hi,
all together i have 2 TB.
I use 8 configs (4 with 14 tapecycles each and 4 with 1 tapecycle each).
In each config i told amanda to use a maximum of 300GB.
Which size would you use?

I forgot to say.
I did that because my backup size is between 40 and 160 GB each tape, every
day. So i set it to 300 to guarantee that the end of the tape is never
reached and that i do not get the error tape full.
Hope you unterstand what i mean

Suggestions anyone?
Use the -h option of amrestore to confirm if it was compressed,
probably with gzip.
If that is the case you will have to put a gzip -d command in
the pipeline between amrestore and restore.
