amrecover questions
2002-11-01 12:45:27
Ok...I've pretty much decided that amrecover requires a manual load of
the tape needed. Is there any way for it to determine that the tape may
need to be rewound (the debug file seems to imply that it is rewinding
but I get the header error). I can't find any way to make the rewind
timeout take longer. If I manually rewind the tape and the try to
recover...all is happy. This has thus far been my only real complaint
with amanda and it's probably just something I have misconfigured.
I also have an issue with recover in that it deletes files when the
incremental is restored. I can almost understand why. It seems that if
the files aren't included in the incremental (and they won't be if they
haven't changed) the tar command seems to assume that the files have
been removed and deletes them to have the directory appear to be in the
"same state" as it thinks it was. Anyone else run into this? Is there
some subtle configuration I'm missing?
Still haven't received any response to my smbrestore question.
