Thank you for your answers.

Do I need  to install ftape-tools or  is this  obsolete ?

Cheers,
Laurent.

Hello Amanda Users,

I've been through Docs and mans, and haven't found a definitive answer to my questions. I apologize up front if these are RTFM questions.

1) Does Amanda support LTO 3 formats ?

If your OS can read/write the tapes, so can Amanda.

2) Would it be possible to have Amanda backup the same data directory simultaneously to two LTO 3 drives ? The idea is to make 2 backups, one for normal restore operations, the other set for off-site storage.

I think you are looking for a mirror with RAIT:
