AMTOC(8) System Administration Commands AMTOC(8)

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

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

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

-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)

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

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.
