I used my calculator to add the filesizes of your holding disk: 18.363.547 Kb
My questions are
1) Don't understand why I can't flush less than 20GB of data to my tapes which
are supposed to hold 20GB raw and more compressed. I have compression turned
off on the drive. I thought I was compressing the dumps, but I just checked the
disklist and amanda.conf and found I wasn't.
How much is the "length" parameter of the tapetype you use? Have you created
your own tapetype definition, by using amtapetype? This fills a tape up to the
end with data to find out the parameter for your tape.
2) Is there any way to compress the files now on the holdingdisk before they're
taped?
If you configured compression in your dumptype section it allready is
compressed. If not, I think amanda can't handle the restore, if you compress
the holdingdisk data and flush it to tape.
