Hi all,
I have a working amanda setup. I use a 14d dumpcycle and 20 tapecycle
with daily backups. I just want to conmfirm my understanding: When
issuing an amovervie I get the following (excuse the text wrap)
date 12 12 12 12 12 12 12 12 12 01 01 01 01 01
01 01 01 01 01 01
host disk 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 01 02 03 04 05
06 07 08 09 10 11
alphacen /home 2 3 4 4 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 0 1
2 3 3 3 3 4
does this mean that if I want a complete restore of /home, I can only
get one from not before 01/04 ? -- As I see it I do not have a previous
level 0 anymore, so before 01/04 I have incomplete data
Yes. Completely correct.
If you need more, and you have the tape capacity, lower the dumpcycle
to e.g. 7 days.
Having more than one level 0 is better anyway.
