-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi,
Right now I am using amanda for a few different linux servers. My disklists use the directories where different partitions are mounted. This has been working pretty well, but I read somewhere that one can get even better results by breaking things up to as many small directories as one can. This makes sense to me, as it will allow amanda to schedule different level backups the best she can even if it makes things perhaps more difficult to keep track of. So I collected on each client the names of the harddrives for it. find / -type d -fprintf ~/amandalist "`hostname -f`\t\t%p\tcomp-user-tar\n" and I have an idea to exclude all subdirectories in the dumptype, but then I run into the problem of users creating and removing their own subdirectories and then dealing with those. Do people who advocate this sort of setup generate their disklist each time they run amanda? or do they not have to deal with this problem? What is the best use of gtar? Many thanks, - -- Jason -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.4 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFBNOZGA5NiLuECHn4RAkEPAJ4906MoHRzinMz8ye39xx4rHATBtgCgnM/4 ItfI17m2FNhpBvgn2l7nTXg= =l3Gr -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
