So to clarify just so that I understand correctly:
1. Each filesystem per system to be backed up qualifies as a dumpfile.
2. Multiple dumpfiles per backup
3. Multiple tapes per backup, as long as 1 dumpfile isn't larger than the
tape.
One of my systems has a 120 gig drive with about 36gigs (and growing) of
people's images, documents, etc on it (samba server). My single tape
drive is only 20 gigs. I am assuming this will be a problem for Amanda
unless I get a bigger tape drive.
The AMANDA docs suggest handling this situation by splitting the
partition up into multiple tar dumps; each of which will fit on
the tape. (I'm currently in the process of tweaking my configs
to try this for one of my partitions.)
