Hello, I'm trying to learn how to use amanda for backups, but I have several difficulties due to the lack of documentation, so I'm writing here hoping someone can help me to understand what to do and how. The situation is the following: I've a raid partition mounted under /mnt/data, I want to backup this every evening on a dat tape. I've compiled and installed amanda on the computer, and then I've run amtapetype -f /dev/nst0 DAT which (after two hours) returned with: define tapetype DAT { comment "just produced by tapetype prog (hardware compression on)" length 1043 mbytes filemark 0 kbytes speed 316 kps } Now I suppose I have to run amlabel, but when I try I get: [root@mammuth amanda]# amlabel camera_oscura DAT amlabel: could not load tapelist "/usr/local/etc/amanda/camera_oscura/tapelist" where camera_oscura is my configuration. What to do now? If everyone knows some howto or step-by-step documentation please forward to me.
