Setting filetape sizes
2006-03-07 09:44:19
I am using filetapes for backups. I have a 120GB Raid array that I back up to another 120GB single drive. Unfortunately, I've started getting an error during the nightly backup: taper: tape daily20 KB 4194272 fm 8 writing file: No space left on device taper: retrying devserv:/common.2 on new tape: [writing file: No space left on device] taper: tape daily21 KB 0 fm 0 [OK] I assume this is because the new files on this "disk" are larger than the filetape volume. I figured 4GB would be plenty for a file volume, but someone added a new directory with 9 GB of data. Oops. What is a good size to use for filetape volumes? Can I change these sizes after I've started using them? What would be the best way to get out of the situation I'm in? Thanks for any help you can give me.
