A third, and probably larger issue is recovery. If your disklist becomes
dynamic, how do you recover something from a DLE that is no longer in
your disklist? I know it's possible with some manual editing, but is it
practical
to try and remember what a DLE was or search through your old reports to
find out?
Actually, this slight inconvenience has been nagging me for a while,
too, and it is in fact independent from your disklist being dynamic.
Whenever you delete some DLE from your disklist, you can't easily
`amrecover' from it. Heck, you can't even ask `amadmin <conf> find' for
it so that you can restore the files yourself. As I'm sure everybody
here does, I just `cvs update' my disklist to an earlier date in that
case, amrecover, and then update back to the latest version, but this is
a bit more work.
Anybody have an idea of how one could possibly circumvent this problem?
Fortunately, we know exactly at what time an old DLE can completely be
forgotten about (when its last index has been killed).
