Hello all,

i have just succesfully configured an amanda server to store the backups
on a local har disk, backup and restore are working but now im facing a
new doutb.

I have defined 7 tapes on a external usb hard-disk, when the disk is
removed how should i instruct amanda not to remove the database ?

I mean, before removing the disk should i modify the tapes status in any
way ? how?

And on the new disk i must create another 7 tapes, and label them using
correlative numbers ??

These are the actual tapes on the hard-disk, so should i start using
daily08 on the next harddisk ?

slot 7: date 20040602 label daily07
slot 1: date 20040602 label daily01
slot 2: date 20040602 label daily02
slot 3: date 20040602 label daily03
slot 4: date 20040602 label daily04
slot 5: date X        label daily05
slot 6: date X        label daily06


Thanks for your help
Best regards
