Thanks for your relpy Jon,
Ok. I kinda figured I have to upgrade a stabel server someday. What
feature in a current amanda build would allow me to do this?
Thanks,

Hello List,
I just got a second ADIC fastor4000 tape changer. This modle has 8
slots and 1 drive. I'm wondering what is the best way to use a second
tape drive. I'm using amanda 2.4.2p2 as the server and the rpm's that
came with RH7.2 for clients.
I'd like to have amanda control how and when to use the drives. So
that one could fail and backups would still be ok. Is this possible? or
should I setup another config for the new changer?
I think with 2.4.2 the only way to use a second drive is to have separate
configs for each drive. If their respective amdumps might be running
simultaneously, you have to make sure the same client host does not
appear in both configs.
