NAME

       amtoc - generate TOC (Table Of Contents) for an Amanda run

SYNOPSIS

       amtoc [ -a ] [ -i ] [ -t ] [ -f file ] [ -s subs ] [ -w ] [ -- ] logfile

DESCRIPTION

       Amtoc generates a table of contents for an Amanda run.  It's a perl script (if you don't have perl, install it first!).

OPTIONS

       -a     The output file name will be label-of-the-tape.toc in the same directory as logfile.

       -i     Display help about amtoc.

       -t     Generate the output in tabular form.

       -f file
	      Write the output to a file ('-' for stdout).

       -s subs
	      Evaluate the output file name from subs, with $_ set to label-of-the-tape.  The -a option is equivalent to -s 's/$_/.toc/'.

       -w     Separate tapes with form-feeds and display blank lines before totals.

       --     Marks the last option so the next parameter is the logfile.

       logfile
	      (use '-' for stdin)

OUTPUT FORMAT

       The standard output has five fields separated by two spaces:

	      #  Server:/partition  date  level  size[Kb]
	      0  daily-05:  19991005  -  -
	      1  cuisun15:/cuisun15/home  19991005  1  96
	      2  cuinfs:/export/dentiste  19991005  1  96
		...
	      103  cuisg11:/  19991005	0  4139136
	      103  total:  -  -  16716288

       In tabular format (-t), this would look like:

		#  Server:/partition	       date	 lev  size[Kb]
		0  daily-05:		       19991005    -	     -
		1  cuisun15:/cuisun15/home     19991005    1	    96
		2  cuinfs:/export/dentiste     19991005    1	    96
		...
	      103  cuisg11:/		       19991005    0   4139136
	      103  total:		       -	   -  16716288

USAGE

       The easiest way to use it is to run amtoc right after amdump in the cron job:

	      amdump DailySet1 ; logdir=`amgetconf DailySet1 logdir` ; log=`ls -1t $logdir/log.*.[0-9] | head -1` ; amtoc -a $log

       which will generate /etc/amanda/DailySet1/tape_label.toc.  You may also want to call amtoc after an amflush.

NAME

       amreport - generate a formatted output of statistics for an Amanda run

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 cur-
       rent 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  defi-
       nition, amreport will not print tape labels.

       You may use the 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.
