| ==Name==
| | See {{man|8|ammt}}. |
| | |
| ammt — AMANDA version of mt
| |
| | |
| ==Synopsis==
| |
| | |
| ammt [-d ] [ -f | -t | device ] command [count]
| |
| | |
| ==DESCRIPTION==
| |
| | |
| Ammt provides just enough of the standard UNIX mt command for the needs of AMANDA. This is handy when doing a full restore and the standard mt program has not yet been found.
| |
| | |
| Ammt also provides access to the AMANDA output drivers that support various tape simulations.
| |
| | |
| See the amanda(8) man page for more details about AMANDA. See the OUTPUT DRIVERS section of amanda(8) for more information on the AMANDA output drivers. | |
| | |
| ==OPTIONS==
| |
| | |
| -d
| |
| | |
| Turn on debugging output.
| |
| -f device
| |
| | |
| Access tape device device. If not specified, the TAPE environment variable is used.
| |
| -t device
| |
| | |
| Same as -f.
| |
| command count
