Amanda 3.5.4                                       01/25/2025                                     AMCHECKDUMP(8)

Description

Amcheckdump verifies Amanda dump images by reading them from storage volume(s) and verifying that the
       images can be parsed by the appropriate application (if available). For example, a GNUTAR image is passed
       to GNU Tar for parsing, and any errors (e.g., corrupt or missing data) are noted.

       The application runs on the most recent dump or, if --timestamp is specified, on the most recent dump
       with that timestamp. Note that the verification is local to the Amanda server; if the dump application is
       not available, or is configured differently on the server than on the client, then the verification will
       most likely fail.

       If a changer is available, it is used to load the required tapes. Otherwise, the application
       interactively requests the tapes.

       See the "CONFIGURATIONOVERRIDE" section in amanda(8) for information on the -o option.

Example

       # check the most recent dump
       amcheckdump MYCONFIG

       # check a specific dump from back in '78
       amcheckdump MYCONFIG --timestamp 19780615
