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

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