Hello!
I am very new to AMANDA (I started using it yesterday :-). However, I managed
to get the configuration done and all seems to work fine, thanks especially
to the great online manuals I found.
I am using version 2.4.2p2 on Linux (SuSE 6.4, Kernel 2.2.14) with an ADIC
1200 DAT-Changer
Hi,
You have to install the amanda server programs too.

hi,
i have such a changer working fine since about a year now,
it's not the fastest,( amcheck takes about 1 or 2 Minutes per tape)
but 10 Minutes per tape is much to long
my chg-scsi.conf looks like this:
---cut---
number_configs
1
eject
1
sleep
30
cleanmax

I'd like to interject one item...if your chg-scsi trial doesn't fix the
issue, you may want to look at your SCSI controller. You mentioned that
you have an Adaptec 2940 while Chris is using a 7890/91...that could be
part of the equation as well.

Nick,
You can break the process into two steps:
1. Run a cron job which will run the pre-script, copy /db1
to a staging location, and then run the post-script.
2. Have amanda backup the staging area, instead of /db1.
That works well if the database represents a small percentage of
I have
never seen an answer either, and from day one, I have always had the same "index
not found" type of errors. The only thing it affects is "amrecover" which won't
work without an index. But amrestore works fine.

yes - that's right. the slow part is your computer compressing the data. The

It all depends. Does your largest disklist entry fit on your holding
disk? Look further down in your daily report and look at the times
for dumper and taper for each disklist entry. My guess is that you
are doing one or more direct to tape dumps across the network, which
can be extremely slow
You guys are right. It is that the holding disk is not big enough so amanda
is not using it.
All the network data is rsyncd to this machine and then backed up locally.
This is to have
a running mirror and a tape backup. But I do believe the problem is the
holding disk which I am

Are there any source tarballs of tar floating around? The tar located:
