You
have two separate problems you need to address: First, letting AMANDA know that
that tape is not valid anymore. Second, adjusting your backup schedule to
replace the lost backups.
The
first step is to remove the tape from the tape database with the 'amrmtape'
command, which expects a configuration name and tape label as parameters. It
will handle tapelist and the log files.
IIRC,
you won't need to do anything special for the second step, because when AMANDA
examines the logs to determine which levels are needed, the backups done on the
removed tape won't be counted.
You
can use "amadmin due" to see which disks need a level 0.
Hi-
I just overwrote a backup tape
with a tar file. How do I tell Amanda that that backup no longer exists and
that it should try to reschedule as many fulls as possible for tonight? Do I
just find the right log in /var/log/Amanda/<conf> and delete
it?
Thanks,
JLM
