AMDUMP(8)						AMDUMP(8)

NAME
       amdump - back up all disks in an Amanda configuration

SYNOPSIS
       amdump config

DESCRIPTION
       Amdump  switches	 to  the appropriate Amanda configuration
       directory, e.g. /etc/amanda/config, then attempts to  back
       up  every  disk specified by the amanda.conf file.  Amdump
       is normally run by cron.

       If file /etc/amanda/config/hold exists, amdump  will  wait
       until  it  is  removed  before starting the backups.  This
       allows scheduled backups to be delayed when  circumstances
       warrant, for example, if the tape device is being used for
       some other purpose.  While waiting, amdump checks for  the
       hold file every five minutes.

       See  the amanda(8) man page for more details about Amanda.

EXAMPLE
       Here is a typical crontab entry.	  It  runs  amdump  every
       weeknight at 1 a.m. as user bin:

	      0 1 * * 1-5 bin /usr/contrib/sbin/amdump DailySet1
