If not, you could always *trick* AMANDA into dumping to disk: AMANDA spools all of the stuff that it is going to write into a "working disk". The ``taper'' task copies this stuff onto the actual tape. If it can't do this, it leaves the spooled dump(s) (since multiple machines can be involved) in the "working disk"... --don
