I have the following in my amanda.conf file.
inparallel 10
taperalgo largestfit
dumporder
"SSSSSSSSSS"
holdingdisk hd1 {
comment "main
holding disk"
directory
"/export/loc1/AMANDA_HOLD_AREA" # where the holding disk is
use 400 Gb # how
much space can we use on it
chunksize 10GB
}
The problem that I am seeing is that amanda seems to
be dumping the smaller sizes first and my tape unit is sitting idle most of the
time. What I would like is have the biggest size dumped first so that it can
start writing to tape and my tape and dumper are working at the same time.
Does this look like how amanda should be running?
Is there a .debug file that shows the amanda.conf
values used in a run? I want to make sure tat it is using the amanda.conf
values that I think it is using.
Any other hints suggestions or is amanda doing what it
is supposed to be doing.
Thanks
Robert
