Hi,

I'm new to Amanda, I've read the documentation, but few questions remain 
unanswered to me:

1. I want to store the backup on-site (on NAS) and then copy it to tapes to 
take off-site. Does Amanda support it? How would the restoration from tapes 
work if NAS went down?

2. Let's say that during a dumpcycle user creates a file and then one of the 
following days the file is deleted.
How easy/difficult is it to restore the file not knowing when exactly it was 
created and deleted?

3. I want to leave Amanda to do its magic, and have a weekly dumpcycle, but I'd 
like to always keep previous dumpcycle data on-site. 
How do I configure that? Do I need to have two separate configs?

4. Each night Amanda performs a full backup of part of the data. 
What about files that have been deleted since the last backup and not yet 
backed up in the current dumpcycle?

Thanks
