is amanda the right solution

Hi,
we have some genome sequencers which produce lots of data. ATM these are
stored on 2 big Solaris Fileservers (~34TB each) but in the long term we
want to move these to some kind of archive. One idea is to bye a second
tape library (we already have one SL24) and write these datasets to
tapes. Since these datasets can span more then one tape (upto 3.5 TB)
just using tar or dump is not the solution (at least I'm not aware how
to do this).
So can I use amanda for this? I found something about long-term
archiving in the faq but it is not to elaborate.
To summarize the requirements:
- one-time archiving
- each time a different path
- multi-tape-spanning
- should be easy to find out which tapes in the library are part of the
archive.
- easy to setup recovery on a different machine
If amanda is not the right tool, your suggestions are welcome.
regards, Andreas
