Hello list
I wasn't sure I understood how to set the Amanda dumpcycle, runspercycle,
runtapes, and tapecycle correctly, so I wrote a small perl script to check my
logic. It asks a few questions about the number of backups within a certain
time period, whether a changer will be used, etc, and then prints the values
one should set for dumpcycle, runspercycle, runtapes, and tapecycle. Assuming
my thinking is correct, perhaps others on this list could benefit from the
script as well, so I am attaching it...
