chunksize
2003-10-23 22:18:31
Hi, I was once given the impression that chunksize in the amanda.conf
could be used to control at what size a backup image would be written
to tape instead of to holding disk. From reading what is in the man
page, I certainly wouldn't get this idea.
I made the following note in my amanda.conf at one time (possibly the
negative sign alters the meaning?):
# chunksize -1370 Mb # in my own words, this tells
# amanda to use a single file on the holding
# disk for any filesystem < 1370 Mb while
# writing any filesystem > 1370 Mb directly
# to tape
I'm now questioning whether any of this is true. I seem to also
vaguely remember something being said to me once about chunksize not
even being used by AMANDA anymore. Any comments to any of this?
Thanks,
Paul
