AMSERVERCONFIG(8) System Administration Commands AMSERVERCONFIG(8) NAME amserverconfig - program to setup initial Amanda configuration SYNOPSIS amserverconfig config [--template template] [--no-vtape] [--tapetype tapetype] [--tpchanger tpchanger] [--tapedev tapedev] [--changerfile changerfile] [--chang- erdev changerdev] [--labelstr labelstr] [--mailto mailto] [--dumpcycle dumpcycle] [--runspercycle runspercycle] [--runtapes runtapes] [--tapecycle tapecycle] [--help] DESCRIPTION After Amanda rpms are successfully installed, amserverconfig will setup initial Amanda configuration files. It will create /var/lib/amanda/gun- tar-lists directory if one does not exist. amserverconfig does not change existing Amanda configurations. amserverconfig must be run by user amand- abackup. 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 build Amanda configuration with pre-configured template files. Cur- rently, harddisk, single-tape, tape-changer and S3 are the valid inputs for this option. Pre-configured template files can be found in /var/lib/amanda/template.d. This option may be combined with other op- tions. 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/$con- fig. --no-vtape Do not create virtual tapes in the harddisk template case. --tapedev tapedev The path name of non-rewinding tape device. default [file://var/lib/amanda/vtapes/$config] --tpchanger tpchanger The name of the tape changer. default [chg-disk] --changerdev changerdev A tape changer configuration parameter. default [/dev/null] --changerfile changerfile A tape changer configuration parameter. default [/etc/amanda/$con- fig/changer.conf] --labelstr labelstr The tape label constraint regular expression. default [^$con- fig-[0-9][0-9]*$] If this option is used with --template=harddisk, only alphanumeric string is supported. --tapetype tapetype The type of tape drive associated with tapedev or tpchanger. default [HARDDISK] --mailto mailto A space separated list of recipients for mail reports. default [amand- abackup] --dumpcycle dumpcycle The number of days in the backup cycle. default [1week] --runspercycle runspercycle The number of days in the backup cycle. default [5] --runtapes runtapes The maximum number of tapes used in a single run. default [1] --tapecycle tapecycle The size of tape rotation. default [25] --help Display usage. FILES /var/lib/amanda/template.d Amanda configuration template files install location /var/lib/amanda amandabackup home directory /var/lib/amanda/gnutar-lists A directory which contains backup timestamp and list of files backed up. /etc/amanda/$config Amanda configuration files location for $config(e.g: DailySet1). /etc/amanda/template.d A directory contains dumptypes and tapetypes files used by all Amanda configurations. /etc/amandates Amanda file on the client.
