[Amanda-users] 'Idiots Guide' for configuring Amanda on Linux?
2008-10-22 16:27:19
Thanks for your help, Marc.
I've been going through the 'Quick Start' guide (slowly) trying to make certain
that i'm doing everything correctly.
I'm currently confused on two similar parts... Creating the .amandahosts file
and creating the disklist file.
I only intend to backup files from this one machine (the amanda server itself).
With this said, what do i need to enter in the .amandahosts file? And for the
disklist file, to make it backup the entire filesystem, what would the entry be?
My .amandahosts file, which had entries by default cuurrently looks like this:
localhost root amindexd amidxtaped
localhost amandabackup amdump
localhost.localdomain root amindexd amidxtaped
localhost.localdomain amandabackup amdump
Is this correct at all for what i'm trying to do?
Also, i've been getting a new email since i created the cron jobs listed in
that quick start guide that tells me this:
/bin/sh: /usr/local/sbin/amdump: No such file or directory
Either i missed something going through the config, or nothing told me to
create this directory (or file?). Not sure what i need to do there..
Thanks in Advance, again!!
Daniel
