Hi all,

i want the backed up files from a nightly amdump-run to remain on the
holding disk (after they were successfully written to tape!) at least for
one day. So it would be possible to do faster and more comfortable restores
the next day.

Is there an option to acomplish that? And if there is one, is it possible to
force amanda to remove that data after a defined period of time?


Many thanks in advance and best regards,

Christoph
