deleting contents of vtapes after backups
2004-06-08 07:34:42
Hi All,
I installed amanda on my local network and it's doing fine. I've got 2
configs, one daily which backups to a set of 5 vtapes of 700mb each to
burn to cdr, and one weekly full which backups to a set of 250 vtapes of
4GB each to burn to DVD.
The weekly-dvd config has these settings in it:
dumpcycle 0
#runspercycle 4
This only creates full backups of the files. I wonder however, I do not
have the space for all these 250 vtapes, could I delete them after
backing up?
I was thinking of deleting only the data in these dirs, which if I'm not
mistaken let's me reuse these tapes whenever I get close to nr.250 (with
amadmin reuse tapelabels), while only using the space of do many I have
room for.
Thanks,
Kind regards,
Axel
