DESCRIPTION¶
After Amanda rpms are successfully installed, amserverconfig will setup initial Amanda configuration files. It will create /var/lib/amanda/guntar-lists directory if one does not exist. amserverconfig does not change existing Amanda configurations. amserverconfig must be run by user amandabackup.
OPTIONS¶
Options may be abbreviated, as long as the abbreviation is not ambiguous. Option argument can either separated by '=' or a space. Example: --templ=harddisk --tapedev /dev/nst0
amserverconfig builds a new "config" Amanda configuration. Customize the configuration with the options below.
--template template
If tape-changer is chosen for this option, program mtx is required. amserverconfig will search for mtx in the following directory: "/usr/sbin", "/usr/local/sbin", "/usr/local/bin", "/usr/bin", "/bin" and amandabackup's PATH.
If harddisk is chosen and --no-vtape is not specified, amserverconfig will create and label virtual tape file://var/lib/amanda/vtapes/$config.
--no-vtape
--tapedev tapedev
--tpchanger tpchanger
--changerdev changerdev
--changerfile changerfile
--labelstr labelstr
If this option is used with --template=harddisk, only alphanumeric string is supported.
