I don't know but what there may be such a utility hidden in the myriad
of utils that already come with amanda. Its been a while since I
perused the docs. Stephan W. could probably answer that better than I.
I don't know of such a script, no.
What you maybe mean is a script that I posted a while ago.
This small script backs up AMANDA-metadata like indexes and configs.
It writes the archives to a specified targetpath, which in turn may be
set as a DLE inside your disklist. So you get yesterday's metadata on
today's tape.
Not yet the ideal solution, but sufficient for most installations (and
better than NO metadata on tape).
Maybe we can define a new wish on the AMANDA-wishlist:
A new functionality, that adds a new special DLE, containing all the
metadata. amdump could dump the metadata AFTER all the regular DLEs ...
Ideas and thoughts welcome, as always.
Stefan.
