NAME

6       amcheckdump - check the results of an Amanda dump
7

SYNOPSIS

9       amcheckdump config [--timestamp|-t timestamp] [-o configoption]...
10

DESCRIPTION

12       Amcheckdump verifies Amanda dump images by reading them from storage
13       volume(s) and verifying that the images can be parsed by the
14       appropriate application (if available). For example, a GNUTAR image is
15       passed to GNU Tar for parsing, and any errors (e.g., corrupt or missing
16       data) are noted.
17
18       The application runs on the most recent dump or, if --timestamp is
19       specified, on the most recent dump with that timestamp. Note that the
20       verification is local to the Amanda server; if the dump application is
21       not available, or is configured differently on the server than on the
22       client, then the verification will most likely fail.
23
24       If a changer is available, it is used to load the required tapes.
25       Otherwise, the application interactively requests the tapes.
26
27       See the "CONFIGURATION OVERRIDE" section in amanda(8) for information
28       on the -o option.
