amandad.*.debug and sendsize.*.debug for error message.

Title: How to specify TAR or DUMP
Hi all,
Where in the amanda.conf do I specify what form of backup Amanda is supposed to use. Like TAR or DUMP?

The "program" keyword in a "dumptype". See amanda(8).

A quick perusal of the documentation (src/sbin/dump/traverse.c)

check on each file individually.

Are there any problems backing up the FS containing the holding
disk with dump (ufsdump in my case)?
Yes. Dump can get just as confused as tar trying to back up the image it
is writing to. Worse, during a full restore, you'll bring that basically
useless junk back. Not to mention the wasted
to find any way of doing an exclusion
list for dump, and the man page for dump re-enforces that ... so ...
... what are general opinions? ppl moving to gnu-tar vs dump, or just
living without the ability to do exclusions?

The points you bring up, as well as being able to do subsets of an entire

Select a dumptype that has GNUTAR as the backup program and force a
full backup of any disks whose backup program has changed.
