# dumptypes
#
# These are referred to by the disklist file. The dumptype specifies
-# certain "options" for dumping including:
-# index - keep an index of the files backed up
-# compress-fast - (default) compress on the client using fast algorithm
-# compress-best - compress using the best (and slowww) algorithm
-# no-compress - don't compress the dump output
-# srvcompress - Compress dumps on the tape host instead of client
-# machines. This may be useful when a fast tape host
-# is backing up slow clients.
-# record - (default) record the dump in /etc/dumpdates
-# no-record - don't record the dump, for testing
-# no-hold - don't go to the holding disk, good for dumping
-# the holding disk partition itself.
-# skip-full - Skip the disk when a level 0 is due, to allow
-# full backups outside Amanda, eg when the machine
-# is in single-user mode.
-# skip-incr - Skip the disk when the level 0 is NOT due. This
-# is used in archive configurations, where only full
-# dumps are done and the tapes saved.
-# no-full - Do a level 1 every night. This can be used, for
-# example, for small root filesystems that only change
-# slightly relative to a site-wide prototype. Amanda
-# then backs up just the changes.
+# certain parameters for dumping including:
+# auth - authentication scheme to use between server and client.
+# Valid values are "bsd", "krb4", "krb5" and "ssh".
+# Default: [auth bsd]
+# comment - just a comment string
+# comprate - set default compression rate. Should be followed by one or
+# two numbers, optionally separated by a comma. The 1st is
+# the full compression rate; the 2nd is the incremental rate.
+# If the second is omitted, it is assumed equal to the first.
+# The numbers represent the amount of the original file the
+# compressed file is expected to take up.
+# Default: [comprate 0.50, 0.50]
+# compress - specify compression of the backed up data. Valid values are:
+# "none" - don't compress the dump output.
+# "client best" - compress on the client using the best (and
+# probably slowest) algorithm.
+# "client fast" - compress on the client using fast algorithm.
+# "client custom" - compress using your custom client compression program.
+# use client_custom_compress "PROG" to specify
+# the custom compression program.
+# PROG must not contain white space.
+# "server best" - compress on the tape host using the best (and
+# probably slowest) algorithm.
+# "server fast" - compress on the tape host using a fast
+# algorithm. This may be useful when a fast
+# tape host is backing up slow clients.
+# "server custom" - compress using your server custom compression program.
+# use server_custom_compress "PROG" to specify
+# the custom compression program.
+# PROG must not contain white space.
+# Default: [compress client fast]
+# dumpcycle - set the number of days in the dump cycle, ie, set how often a
+# full dump should be performed. Default: from DUMPCYCLE above
+# estimate Determine the way AMANDA does it's estimate.
+# "client" - Use the same program as the dumping program,
+# this is the most accurate way to do estimates,
+# but it can take a long time.
+# "calcsize" - Use a faster program to do estimates, but the
+# result is less accurate.
+# "server" - Use only statistics from the previous run to
+# give an estimate,
+# it takes only a few seconds but the result is not
+# accurate if your disk usage changes from day to day.
+# Default: [client]
+# encrypt - specify encryption of the backed up data. Valid values are:
+# "none" - don't encrypt the dump output.
+# "client" - encrypt on the client using the program specified by
+# client_encrypt "PROG".
+# Use client_decrypt_option to specify the decrypt-
+# parameter, default is "-d".
+# PROG and decrypt-parameter must not contain white space.
+# "server" - encrypt on the server using the program specified by
+# server_encrypt "PROG".
+# Use server_decrypt_option to specify the decrypt-
+# parameter, default is "-d".
+# PROG and decrypt-parameter must not contain white space.
+# Default: [none]
+# exclude - specify files and directories to be excluded from the dump.
+# Useful with gnutar only; silently ignored by dump and samba.
+# Valid values are:
+# "pattern" - a shell glob pattern defining which files
+# to exclude.
+# gnutar gets --exclude="pattern"
+# list "filename" - a file (on the client!) containing patterns
+# re's (1 per line) defining which files to
+# exclude.
+# gnutar gets --exclude-from="filename"
+# Note that the `full pathname' of a file within its
+# filesystem starts with `./', because of the way amanda runs
+# gnutar: `tar -C $mountpoint -cf - --lots-of-options .' (note
+# the final dot!) Thus, if you're backing up `/usr' with a
+# diskfile entry like ``host /usr gnutar-root', but you don't
+# want to backup /usr/tmp, your exclude list should contain
+# the pattern `./tmp', as this is relative to the `/usr' above.
+# Please refer to the man-page of gnutar for more information.
+# If a relative pathname is specified as the exclude list,
+# it is searched from within the directory that is
+# going to be backed up.
+# Default: include all files
+# holdingdisk - should the holding disk be used for this dump. Useful for
+# dumping the holding disk itself. Default: [holdingdisk yes]
+# ignore - do not back this filesystem up. Useful for sharing a single
+# disklist in several configurations.
+# index - keep an index of the files backed up. Default: [index no]
+# kencrypt - encrypt the data stream between the client and server.
+# Default: [kencrypt no]
+# maxdumps - max number of concurrent dumps to run on the client.
+# Default: [maxdumps 1]
+# maxpromoteday - max number of day for a promotion, set it 0 if you don't
+# want promotion, set it to 1 or 2 if your disk get
+# overpromoted.
+# Default: [10000]
+# priority - priority level of the dump. Valid levels are "low", "medium"
+# or "high". These are really only used when Amanda has no
+# tape to write to because of some error. In that "degraded
+# mode", as many incrementals as will fit on the holding disk
+# are done, higher priority first, to insure the important
+# disks are at least dumped. Default: [priority medium]
+# program - specify the dump system to use. Valid values are "DUMP" and
+# "GNUTAR". Default: [program "DUMP"].
+# record - record the backup in the time-stamp-database of the backup
+# program (e.g. /var/lib/dumpdates for DUMP or
+# @GNUTAR_LISTED_INCREMENTAL_DIRX@ for GNUTAR.).
+# Default: [record yes]
+# skip-full - skip the disk when a level 0 is due, to allow full backups
+# outside Amanda, eg when the machine is in single-user mode.
+# skip-incr - skip the disk when the level 0 is NOT due. This is used in
+# archive configurations, where only full dumps are done and
+# the tapes saved.
+# starttime - delay the start of the dump? Default: no delay
+# strategy - set the dump strategy. Valid strategies are currently:
+# "standard" - the standard one.
+# "nofull" - do level 1 dumps every time. This can be used,
+# for example, for small root filesystems that
+# only change slightly relative to a site-wide
+# prototype. Amanda then backs up just the
+# changes.
+# "noinc" - do level 0 dumps every time.
+# "skip" - skip all dumps. Useful for sharing a single
+# disklist in several configurations.
+# "incronly" - do only incremental dumps. This is similar
+# to strategy 'nofull', but will increase
+# the dump level as usual. Full dumps will
+# only be performed when an 'amadmin force'
+# has been issued
+# Default: [strategy standard]
+# tape_splitsize - (optional) split dump file into pieces of a specified size.
+# This allows dumps to be spread across multiple tapes, and can
+# potentially make more efficient use of tape space. Note that
+# if this value is too large (more than half the size of the
+# average dump being split), substantial tape space can be
+# wasted. If too small, large dumps will be split into
+# innumerable tiny dumpfiles, adding to restoration complexity.
+# A good rule of thumb, usually, is 1/10 of the size of your
+# tape. Default: [disabled]
+# split_diskbuffer - (optional) When dumping a split dump in PORT-WRITE
+# mode (usually meaning "no holding disk"), buffer the split
+# chunks to a file in the directory specified by this option.
+# Default: [none]
+# fallback_splitsize - (optional) When dumping a split dump in PORT-WRITE
+# mode, if no split_diskbuffer is specified (or if we somehow
+# fail to use our split_diskbuffer), we must buffer split
+# chunks in memory. This specifies the maximum size split
+# chunks can be in this scenario, and thus the maximum amount
+# of memory consumed for in-memory splitting. Default: [10m]
#
-# Also, the dumptype specifies the priority level, where "low", "medium" and
-# "high" are the allowed levels. These are only really used when Amanda has
-# no tape to write to because of some error. In that "degraded mode", as
-# many incrementals as will fit on the holding disk are done, higher priority
-# first, to insure the important disks are dumped first.
+# Note that you may specify previously defined dumptypes as a shorthand way of
+# defining parameters.
