Once I considered using amanda, and there was one thing not that clear.
It seems that it is unable to cope with dumps, greater than one tape.
Well, it's not freebsd headache, but how do you guys write backups
to this HP DLT 40 that uses 20G tapes from modern systems with
100+GB disks? My impression that these two 'options' are mutually exclusive,
but maybe there's someone who succeed? Anyone?
