Amanda is a backup system designed to archive many -computers on a network to a single large-capacity tape drive. This release -is currently in daily use at the University of Maryland at College Park -Computer Science Department, backing up all the disks on all the -workstations in the department: currently over 70 gigabytes of data across -more than 400 filesystems on more than 146 workstations and servers, using -a single 5 Gigabyte Exabyte EXB-8500. Here are some features of Amanda: - - * written in C, freely distributable. - * built on top of standard backup software: BSD Unix dump/restore, and - later GNU Tar and others. - * will back up multiple machines in parallel to a holding disk, blasting - finished dumps one by one to tape as fast as we can write files to - tape. For example, a ~2 Gb 8mm tape on a ~240K/s interface to a host - with a large holding disk can be filled by Amanda in under 4 hours. - * does simple tape management: will not overwrite the wrong tape. - * supports tape changers via a generic interface. Easily customizable to - any type of tape carousel, robot, or stacker that can be controlled via - the unix command line. - * supports Kerberos 4 security, including encrypted dumps. The Kerberos - support is available as a separate add-on package, see the file - KERBEROS.HOW-TO-GET on the ftp site, and the file docs/KERBEROS in this - package, for more details. - * for a restore, tells you what tapes you need, and finds the proper - backup image on the tape for you. - * recovers gracefully from errors, including down or hung machines. - * reports results, including all errors in detail, in email to operators. - * will dynamically adjust backup schedule to keep within constraints: no - more juggling by hand when adding disks and computers to network. - * includes a pre-run checker program, that conducts sanity checks on both - the tape server host and all the client hosts (in parallel), and will - send an e-mail report of any problems that could cause the backups to - fail. - * can compress dumps before sending over net, with either compress or gzip. - * can optionally syncronize with external backups, for those large - timesharing computers where you want to do full dumps when the system - is down in single-user mode (since BSD dump is not reliable on active - filesystems): Amanda will still do your daily dumps. - * lots of other options; Amanda is very configurable. - -Amanda requires a host that is mostly idle at night, with a large capacity -tape drive (e.g. an EXABYTE or DAT tape). This becomes the "tape server -host". All the computers you are going to dump are the "backup client -hosts". The server host can also be a client host. - -Amanda works best with one or more large "holding disk" partition on the -server host available to it for buffering dumps before writing to tape. -The holding disk allows Amanda to run backups in parallel to the disk, only -writing them to tape when the backup is finished. Note that the holding -disk is not required: without it Amanda will run backups sequentially to -the tape drive. Running it this way kills the great performance, but still -allows you to take advantage of Amanda's other features. - -As a rule of thumb, for best performance the holding disk should be larger -than the dump output from your largest disk partitions. For example, if -you are backing up some full gigabyte disks that compress down to 500 MB, -then you'll want 500 MB on your holding disk. On the other hand, if those -gigabyte drives are partitioned into 500 MB filesystems, they'll probably -compress down to 250 MB and you'll only need that much on your holding -disk. Amanda will perform better with larger holding disks. We use 800 MB -for our holding disk. - -Actually, Amanda will still work if you have full dumps that are larger -than the holding disk: Amanda will send those dumps directly to tape one at -a time. If you have many such dumps you will be limited by the dump speed -of those machines. diff --git a/sysutils/amanda/pkg/PLIST b/sysutils/amanda/pkg/PLIST deleted file mode 100644 index 4ab2c8839fc..00000000000 --- a/sysutils/amanda/pkg/PLIST +++ /dev/null @@ -1,70 +0,0 @@ -@comment $NetBSD: PLIST,v 1.7 1998/07/18 14:39:41 tv Exp $ -lib/libamanda.a -lib/libamanda.so.5.0 -lib/libamclient.a -lib/libamclient.so.0.4 -lib/libamnolog.a -lib/libamnolog.so.0.0 -lib/libamserver.a -lib/libamserver.so.3.0 -lib/libamtape.a -lib/libamtape.so.1.1 -libexec/amandad -libexec/amcat.awk -libexec/amidxtaped -libexec/amindexd -libexec/amplot.awk -libexec/amplot.g -libexec/amplot.gp -libexec/amtrmidx -libexec/calcsize -libexec/chg-chio -libexec/chg-chs -libexec/chg-manual -libexec/chg-mtx -libexec/chg-multi -libexec/chg-rth -libexec/driver -libexec/dumper -libexec/getconf -libexec/patch-system -libexec/planner -libexec/reporter -libexec/rundump -libexec/runtar -libexec/selfcheck -libexec/sendbackup -libexec/sendsize -libexec/taper -libexec/versionsuffix -man/man8/amadmin.8 -man/man8/amanda.8 -man/man8/amcheck.8 -man/man8/amcheckdb.8 -man/man8/amcleanup.8 -man/man8/amdump.8 -man/man8/amflush.8 -man/man8/amlabel.8 -man/man8/amoverview.8 -man/man8/amplot.8 -man/man8/amrecover.8 -man/man8/amrestore.8 -man/man8/amrmtape.8 -man/man8/amtape.8 -man/man8/amtoc.8 -man/man8/amverify.8 -sbin/amadmin -sbin/amcheck -sbin/amcheckdb -sbin/amcleanup -sbin/amdump -sbin/amflush -sbin/amlabel -sbin/amoverview -sbin/amplot -sbin/amrecover -sbin/amrestore -sbin/amrmtape -sbin/amtape -sbin/amtoc -sbin/amverify |
