hi,

I'm wondering if there is a way in the case where we use amanda with a
tapeless system (HD disk), to emulate such a tape-changer that is a
script which change the link "data" to the good HD

in my case
+amanda.conf has the follwing line:
    tapedev "file:/unige/amanda/bckp/"
+ls -l /unige/amanda/bckp/
   /unige/amanda/bckp/data -> sb03_1/
   /unige/amanda/bckp/info
   /unige/amanda/bckp/sb01_1 -> /net/obssb1/export/diskB1/1/ 
   /unige/amanda/bckp/sb01_2 -> /net/obssb1/export/diskB1/2/
   /unige/amanda/bckp/sb02_1 -> /net/obssb2/export/diskB1/1/
   /unige/amanda/bckp/sb02_2 -> /net/obssb2/export/diskB1/2/
   /unige/amanda/bckp/sb03_1 -> /net/obssb3/export/diskB1/1/
   /unige/amanda/bckp/sb03_2 -> /net/obssb3/export/diskB1/2/
   /unige/amanda/bckp/sb05_1 -> /net/obssb5/export/diskB1/1/
   /unige/amanda/bckp/sb05_2 -> /net/obssb5/export/diskB1/2/

so as you imagine, i'm changing automatically with a script the link
data to one of the "tape"Disk.

But is there an other smarty way to do this through a special changerdev
which will make things much more easier!
