SYNOPSIS

9       amoverview [[-config ] config] [-hostwidth width] [-diskwidth width]
10                  [-skipmissed] [-last] [-num0] [-togo0] [-verbose]

DESCRIPTION

13       Amoverview displays a chart showing hosts and file systems processed by
14       Amanda along with the backup level performed each day.
15
16       See the amanda(8) man page for more details about Amanda.

OPTIONS

19       -config config
20           Use configuration config instead of configuration daily.
21
22       -hostwidth width
23           Set host field column width to width characters instead of 8.
24
25       -diskwidth width
26           Set disk field column width to width characters instead of 20.
27
28       -skipmissed
29           Compacts the output by only printing stats for the days Amanda
30           actually ran.
31
32       -last
33           Outputs the last status of each disk at the start. Useful for long
34           tapecycles and/or sparse reports.
35
36       -num0
37           Outputs the number of level 0 dumps for each disk.
38
39       -togo0
40           Outputs the number of runs until the last level 0 dump is
41           overwritten.
42
43       -verbose
44           Amoverview can take a long while on large systems. This option
45           reports intermediate steps while it is working.
46

RESULTS

48       amoverview is a summary of the output of " amadmin <config> find ".
49       When the last column of amadmin find contains anything other than "OK",
50       amoverview translates this into "E" for that day.
51
52       A number indicates the level of backup and it succeeded. An "E"
53       indicates an error for that day. You get an "E" for all errors, like
54       failed to connect, datatimeout, computer crashed, etc, but also for
55       failing to write to tape.
56
57       You can have an "E" followed by a number if a filesystem ran into
58       end-of-tape once (gives an "E", and later that day, you flush it to a
59       second tape (a number: the level, indicating success). If the flush
60       failed too, you get a double "EE" for that day.
61
62       You can also have a double code if you have two tapes in the changer
63       and Amanda failed to write to tape the first time because it hit end of
64       tape (resulting in "E0", for a full, "E1" for an incremental etc.) or
65       twice with error ("EE"), and may a successful flush afterwards giving
66       maybe "EE0". (Only the latest 2 characters are printed).

EXAMPLE

69       This shows the /home file system on host2 was backed up at level 3 on
70       the 8th, 9th and 10th of December, had a full backup on the 11th, a
71       level 1 on the 12th and a level 2 on the 13th.
