Yeah, I know that was true when I started using it a few years back. I haven't looked since to see if multi-tape-per-partition dumps are available now. My disks aren't that big (9GB) and I conservatively partition them so no partition is bigger than my uncompressed tape size (4GB for a DDS2-120m). If you've got paritions much larger than your tape capacity, you may be in trouble if Amanda can't span tapes. :-( To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
