Re: Asking for new tapes when an old tape should be available
2007-12-28 12:54:18
I got into a situation where I missed tape changes for a few days, so
my backups we put to the holding disk. In the process of dumping the
data I inadvertently dumped two days to the same tape when messed up
my tape pattern. To fix that I decided to mark the corresponding
unneed tape (107) as no-reuse. After that Amanda insists on having a
new tape, instead of the next one in line (108). I have reset 107 to
be reusable, but amanda wont go back and reuse it now either.
Any thoughts on how I can fix this without messing with all of my
tapes?
I would suggest that you solve this by choosing to stop worrying about
which tapes are used on which day. Does that actually get you any
benefit?
