Can I install a 35GB REV Drive on an Amanda Server?

[JHammett]

I have a client that has 10-15 windows XP computers with no server. I would like to setup an Amanda Server on a "server" with a RAID 10 setup. For the backup, I would want to backup to the RAID array on the Amanda server, which would be accessable from the network in case of emergency, and also backup the same data to a REV Disk (installed in the amanda server), so that my client could take a copy of the backup home with them. Is this doable?

Thanks

Yes, you can do that.
Amanda allows you to backup the same data to two different targets, e.g. vtapes (virtual tapes on disk) at the same time. Take a look at Amanda wiki for detailed configuration instructions (http://wiki.zmanda.com/index.php/Rait).
