Amanda is designed to attempt to load average data across the week.
You can coerce it into a weekend full but it isn't the normal method
of operations. This will require a large enough single volume to
backup all partitions at level 0, rather than distrubuting level 0, 1, 2,
across 5
and/or you need instant access to them at any given time?
Then maybe the load-balancing of Amanda would be better to help with
tape management. Or perhaps a mix of the two...
Determine what you need, then find the best tools for those needs.

I've got two identical tapes drives that I'd like to make the best use

My next thought is a kind of tape changer setup, but I'm not

With our 2nd jukebox and LTO drives I'd much prefer to use

disks,
I thought about using RAIT when it was added to Amanda, but didn't

However, I did have an idea on how to use multiple drives to gain

I have a STK 9730 with 2 tape drives and 30 slots.
I use chg-scsi to change tapes.
In my chg-scsi.conf file I have allocated drives 0-14 for drive #0 and
15-29 for drive #1.
I can get chg-scsi to work with drive #0 just fine, but cannot get it to
work with drive #1.

Does anyone know if a Dell Powervault 110 LTO tape drive work with

There has been some discussion of IDE tape drives recently, and the
consensus seemed to be to use ide-scsi and use them as SCSI devices.
Search the list archives for details, and give that a shot.

Just a couple of questions and an observation or two.
I've seen the 100gigabyte disk drives, you speak of, advertised as a near-line
backup solution. Sounds good up front.
Tape drives at 4 times the 100GB low-end drives? I wish. A good enterprise
quality tape drive costs from $8,000
Also Sprach Steve Follmer:
I should clarify that I was quoting the article.
I will forward this to the author:
capital B is for Bytes

Yes. 1.5Gbps = 188
100 gigabyte hard disk is less than $200
Where? I'm not even aware of a 100G disk being sold.
while the last check on high capacity tape drives turned up prices exceeding
4 times that for maybe a quarter the capacity because advertised tape
capacity is compressed capacity.

I's an engineering tradeoff.
But pricewise: Very true. Backups

Seagate and IBM sell 120 GB ATA drives. Street price is around $120-140.
Seagate also has a 180 GB SCSI/FC-AL disk in their

Watch out, 1 TB is just around the corner or at least within the next
2-3 years.
