Re: finding which Amanda run will run tonight
2005-03-02 06:45:24
I want to start the cycle on Monday. I want only on Monday to change the
tapes and I want to know that in a cycle I have the backups for one week
from Monday till Friday.
If one day a dump can not be performed can I then run amdump 2 times to
catch amanda?

Hi all,
How can I find which run from the runspercycle will amanda run
tonight?
For example: runpercycle=5. On Monday is the first run, Thuesday is
the second and so on. On Friday should be la last Amanda run from
that cycle. But if Amanda skips one night (error, intentional or
something else) that night doesn't count and for example on Friday
can be the 4th run instead of 5th from its cycle and on Monday the
last (the 5^th ). I hope I made myself clear.
How can I find this?
If cron tried to run amanda, but failed due to a missing tape, thats
still counted against the runspercycle I believe. If it was ever
started, that wouldn't count, but amanda does keep track of the dates
and will know that some catchup is going to be needed, possibly
overrunning the tapes capacity for the next several runs.
