Hi all,

Is there a configuration for amanda where I can use just 1 tape?(always full
dumps, one overriding the previous)
I want to avoid keep changing between tapes since my root is far from the
tape server :-(

I set the following parameters to:
dumpcycle 0 days        # the number of days in the normal dump cycle
runspercycle 1 days     # the number of amdump runs in dumpcycle days
tapecycle 0 tapes       # the number of tapes in rotation

But amdump is still wainting for a "new tape".

Every tip would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Bruno Negrão.
