handling unreasonably large, non-static directories
2006-01-11 18:28:08
Hi,
Amanda has been working wonderfully for me ever since I started using it
about a year ago. I do have one question though, that plagues me every
time I try to confront it:
I have one directory on one of my boxes that holds files for customers
(each customer gets a subdirectory (the subdirectory seems to just be a
customer number... so it's mostly sequential unless a customer gets
deleted. The size of these directories varies widely (anywhere from a
few megabytes to 15 gigabytes). All in all there is a little under
200GB of data that needs to be backed up. Initially I had just been
going through the list of directories myself and compiling 15GB chunks
of them to be backed up, but due to the ever-changing nature of these
directories it's kind of a pain to keep up w/ that. Is there any way I
could have amanda automatically split this directory up into chunks to
be backed up? Or, does anyone else have any keen ideas on how one might
approach this problem?
Thanks,
Cameron Matheson
