-WHAT IS AMANDA?
----------------
-
-This is an alpha-test release of Amanda, the Advanced Maryland Automatic
-Network Disk Archiver.  Amanda is a backup system designed to archive many
-computers on a network to a single large-capacity tape drive.  This release
-is currently in daily use at the University of Maryland at College Park
-Computer Science Department, backing up all the disks on all the
-workstations in the department: currently over 70 gigabytes of data across
-more than 400 filesystems on more than 146 workstations and servers, using
-a single 5 Gigabyte Exabyte EXB-8500.  Here are some features of Amanda:
-
-  * written in C, freely distributable.
-  * built on top of standard backup software: BSD Unix dump/restore, and
-    later GNU Tar and others.
-  * will back up multiple machines in parallel to a holding disk, blasting
-    finished dumps one by one to tape as fast as we can write files to
-    tape.  For example, a ~2 Gb 8mm tape on a ~240K/s interface to a host
-    with a large holding disk can be filled by Amanda in under 4 hours.
-  * does simple tape management: will not overwrite the wrong tape.
-  * supports tape changers via a generic interface.  Easily customizable to
-    any type of tape carousel, robot, or stacker that can be controlled via
-    the unix command line.
-  * supports Kerberos 4 security, including encrypted dumps.  The Kerberos
-    support is available as a separate add-on package, see the file
-    KERBEROS.HOW-TO-GET on the ftp site, and the file docs/KERBEROS in this
-    package, for more details.
-  * for a restore, tells you what tapes you need, and finds the proper
-    backup image on the tape for you.
-  * recovers gracefully from errors, including down or hung machines.
-  * reports results, including all errors in detail, in email to operators.
-  * will dynamically adjust backup schedule to keep within constraints: no
-    more juggling by hand when adding disks and computers to network.
-  * includes a pre-run checker program, that conducts sanity checks on both
-    the tape server host and all the client hosts (in parallel), and will
-    send an e-mail report of any problems that could cause the backups to
-    fail.
-  * can compress dumps before sending over net, with either compress or gzip.
-  * can optionally syncronize with external backups, for those large
-    timesharing computers where you want to do fu--------------------------------------------
-
-Amanda requires a host that is mostly idle at night, with a large capacity
-tape drive (e.g. an EXABYTE or DAT tape).  This becomes the "tape server
-host".  All the computers you are going to dump are the "backup client
-hosts".  The server host can also be a client host.
-
-Amanda works best with one or more large "holding disk" partition on the
-server host available to it for buffering dumps before writing to tape.
-The holding disk allows Amanda to run backups in parallel to the disk, only
-writing them to tape when the backup is finished.  Note that the holding
-disk is not required: without it Amanda will run backups sequentially to
-the tape drive.  Running it this way kills the great performance, but still
-allows you to take advantage of Amanda's other features.
-
-As a rule of thumb, for best performance the holding disk should be larger
-than the dump output from your largest disk partitions.  For example, if
-you are backing up some full gigabyte disks that compress down to 500 MB,
-then you'll want 500 MB on your holding disk.  On the other hand, if those
-gigabyte drives are partitioned into 500 MB filesystems, they'll probably
-compress down to 250 MB and you'll only need that much on your holding
-disk.  Amanda will perform better with larger holding disks.  We use 800 MB
-for our holding disk.
-
-Actually, Amanda will still work if you have full dumps that are larger
-than the holding disk: Amanda will send those dumps directly to tape one at
-a time.  If you have many such dumps you will be limited by the dump speed
-of those machines.
