-
-Synopsis
-
-amreport [config] [ -l logfile ] [ -f outputfile ] [ -p postscriptfile ]
-
-DESCRIPTION
-
-Amreport generates a summary report of an amanda(8) backup run. If no
-configuration name is specified, amanda.conf is read from the current
-directory.
-See the amanda(8) man page for more details about AMANDA.
-
-OPTIONS
-
-
-
- config
- Name of the configuration to process.
-
- -l logfile
- Name of the log file to parse to generate the report. If a log file is
- not specified, it defaults to the file:
-
-logdir/log
-where logdir is the log directory defined in amanda.conf.
-
-
- -f outputfile
- Normally, amreport sends the report via e-mail to the mailto user as
- defined in the amanda.conf file. If outputfile is specified, then the
- report is put in outputfile.
-
- -p postscriptfile
- Send the postscript output to the file postscriptfile instead of to the
- lpr(1) command. This option has an effect only if the lbl-templ directive
- is specified in amanda.conf.
-
-
-LABEL PRINTING
-
-AMANDA can print postscript labels describing the contents of tape(s) written
-in a run. The labels are designed to be folded and inserted into the tape case
-along with the tape or hole punched and put in a 3-ring binder. Various label
-templates are provided to format data for different tape sizes.
-The information printed varies slightly between label templates due to size
-constraints. Labels contain one line for each host/file-system pair and may
-also contain the file number on the tape, the level of the dump, the original
-size of the dump and the size of the (possibly compressed) tape file.
-Add the lbl-templ parameter to the tapetype definition in amanda.conf to enable
-labels. If you don't add this line to your tapetype definition, amreport will
-not print tape labels.
-You may use the remap='I'>printer keyword in amanda.conf to print to other than
-the system default printer.
-
-TEMPLATES
-
-AMANDA provides label templates for the following tape types. These are pretty
-generic labels and should be easy to customize for other tape types or
-particular site needs.
-
-* ExaByte 8mm tapes
-* DAT 4mm tapes
-* DLT tapes
-* 3-ring binder
-The 3-ring binder type is the most generic. It may be used to make a hardcopy
-log of the tapes.
