I have a >15GB filesystem that cannot fit on one tape. So as per the
disklist example in the amanda package, I break the filesystem into <12 GB
chunks as follows : -
sa03 /terrasky/tslibrary/ {
# all directories that start with [h-m]
user-tar
include "./[a-f]*"
} 1
sa03 /terrasky/tslibrary/ {
# all directories that start with [n-u]
user-tar
include "./[g-z]*"
}
I get the following error message
[amanda < at > sa01 MonthlySet1]$ amcheck -s MonthlySet1
"/usr/local/etc/amanda/MonthlySet1/disklist", line 22: duplicate disk
record, previous on line 17
"/usr/local/etc/amanda/MonthlySet1/disklist", line 26: dumptype
custom(sa03:/dev/hdc1/tslibrary) already defined on line 17
amcheck: could not load disklist /usr/local/etc/amanda/MonthlySet1/disklist
The syntax for a disklist entry is:
hostname diskname [ diskdevice ] dumptype [ spindle [ interface ] ]
When you leave out the "diskdevice", then diskname and diskdevice are
the same. The combination hostname+diskname must be unique.
To accomplish what you want use DLE's like:
sa03 /terrasky/tslibrary_AF /terrasky/tslibrary/ {
# all directories that start with [h-m]
user-tar
include "./[a-f]*"
} 1
sa03 /terrasky/tslibrary_GZ /terrasky/tslibrary/ {
# all directories that start with [n-u]
user-tar
include "./[g-z]*"
}
sa03 /terrasky/tslibrary_REST /terrasky/tslibrary/ {
# all directories that start with [n-u]
user-tar
exclude "./[a-z]*"
}
For "diskname" you may invent anything, as long as the
hostname+diskname is unique.
Notice also I added a third entry to catch all the rest. That
way you wan't be suprised when some asks to restore a file named
"2nd_nobel_prize" or "_very_imporant_", etc.
Can anyone help me in determine what could be wrong with this config. I
changed the second sa03 entry to sa03.terra.terrasky.mu and I get no error
messages.
Changing the hostname satifies "hostname+diskname" uniqueness, but
gets you into trouble when amanda believe it are two different hosts,
and Amanda cannot handle that!!!
