Not exactly, Olivier:)
I just tried to find some ways how to let the Amanda (taper phase of
backup process) to create files avoiding Large Files Problem (LFP). For
example, i can do it using the following command under FreeBSD-4.x:
ssh MyHost dump -0 -u -a -f /MyBigBigBigSlice > MyHost.MyBigBigBigSlice.0.dump
The same way is used in Amanda but in dumper phase only. But when taper is
beginning to move chunks from holding disks to a virtual tape, the LFP is
appeared until we do tape splitting into chunks, the method offered by
Jon.
Anyway, now i run Amanda under FreeBSD-5.x without LFP. I think
its a good solution for today:)
