speeding up estimates
2008-07-02 18:03:55
I'm having trouble making backups because the estimates are taking too long.
I inherited an amanda backup setup and my predecessor had already increased
the etimeout to 1800. I doubled it to 3600 and I was still getting timeout
warnings at the top of the email when I did an amdump. So I doubled it again
and now it's been running for 3 days.
I saw in the amanda.conf man page that there's an 'estimate' directive.
Values are client, calcsize, and server. But amdump complains when I add the
directive to amanda.conf saying, "configuration keyword expected". I'm
pretty sure the spelling is right since I cut and pasted right from the man
page.
# Do faster estimates
estimate calcsize
Questions:
1. Is something wrong with my setup that it takes that long to do the
estimates?
2. Can I spped up the estimates?
