how to split partitions
2006-03-16 07:20:33
Hi,
how do I split partitions to get smaller dumps? I have two partitions
that are too large to be backed up to one tape as a whole. Backups are
to a tape changer, so once a tape is full, amanda should automtically
change to the next tape and continue the backup run.
As far as I've been reading here and in the docs, I would have to set up
dumptypes using tar and exclude lists. I would somehow backup
/home/[a-c]*, /home/[d-f]* and so on.
But that doesn't seem to be a good solution. I would have to create 10
different dumptypes and 10 exclude lists to get it going from a-z and
for /home itselfe in case there are directories/files created that have
other names than those starting with a-z.
There must be some better way ...
