Why include parent directory in disklist?
2005-04-06 10:37:57
I am still trying to understand and improve my inherited amanda
configuration. I notice that in the disklist, there are parent
directories listed before their children. Here is an example:
myhost / comp-low-tar
myhost /usr comp-low-tar
myhost /var comp-med-tar
myhost /net/myhost/home comp-med-tar
Does Amanda backup the subdirectories of an item listed in the disklist?
And does that mean that I am backing up /usr twice? I suspect that the
answer is no, but I would like to confirm this.
I also notice that some things in the disklist sometimes show up in
amadmin balance as being extraordinarily overdue (like 131 days).

(3 filesystems overdue, the most being overdue 131 days)
I am suspicious that it is the parent directories that are so much
overdue, but I don't know how to confirm what is overdue. Additionally,
I am looking for a way to determine which disklist item is going to be
fully backed up when. They don't seem to correspond that way. Is there
an option to amadmin that I missed?
