Hello, 
 
I need help on figuring out how to set up the dump cycle.  The way I have 
previously done backups is a full dump on Friday night with incremental dumps 
Saturday through Thursday.  I keep 
the full dumps for the past 5 Fridays, and full dumps done on the last Friday 
of the previous 3 months.  I short, I want to have the ability to restore a 
system to its previous state for the last 7 
days, 5 weeks, and 3 months.   I have an Powervault 120T/DLT7000 that holds 7 
tapes.   With compression off each tape holds about 35G.  A full dump of all of 
my systems uncompressed 
will fill nearly 6 tapes.  I have plenty of tapes to swap out all tapes daily.  
Is there an easy way to set amanda.conf up to backup like this in only one 
configuration?  Or do I need multiple 
configs?  I have already read the Amanda chapter of the O'Reilly Backup book.  
I would just like to see someone's example config who may be doing something 
similar to what I am trying to 
do. 
 
Thanks! 
 
Jay
