73 # holding disk space for the so-called degraded mode backups.

75 # parameter, amanda will not degrade backups if they will fit in the

86 # Amanda needs a few Mb of diskspace for the log and debug files,
87 # as well as a database. This stuff can grow large, so the conf directory
88 # isn't usually appropriate. Some sites use /usr/local/var and some /usr/adm.
89 # Create an amanda directory under there. You need a separate infofile and
90 # logdir for each configuration, so create subdirectories for each conf and
91 # put the files there. Specify the locations below.
93 # Note that, although the keyword below is infofile, it is only so for
94 # historic reasons, since now it is supposed to be a directory (unless

102 # Specify holding disks. These are used as a temporary staging area for
103 # dumps before they are written to tape and are recommended for most sites.
104 # The advantages include: tape drive is more likely to operate in streaming
105 # mode (which reduces tape and drive wear, reduces total dump time); multiple
106 # dumps can be done in parallel (which can dramatically reduce total dump time.
107 # The main disadvantage is that dumps on the holding disk need to be flushed
108 # (with amflush) to tape after an operating system crash or a tape failure.
109 # If no holding disks are specified then all dumps will be written directly
110 # to tape. If a dump is too big to fit on the holding disk than it will be
111 # written directly to tape. If more than one holding disk is specified then
112 # they will all be used based on activity and available space.
