I've been looking for a way to get amanda to try to predict which tape

would be ideal). No luck so far...

Hi,
For the next backup server I'll have to implement, I was asked to see
the feasability of using USB disks instead of tapes.

Hi,
This may be because I am using a prehistoric version of Amanda
