I realize AMANDA is a popular backup tool, but since my backup images are larger than my tapes (4/8GB DDS-2) it is not possible to use it yet. I'm not concerned with elegancy, so I am willing to do a full level 0 dump as often as needed (incrementals aren't top priority, but would be nice). I just want something I can use to start the backup, and walk away as it uses tapes from the 12-tape autoloader that I have. Just wanted to see if this already exists before I re-invent the wheel. Also, if anyone has any other suggestions for backup solutions that would work, I'm all ears :) Thanks, -Paul -- Paul D.
