SYNOPSIS

       amreindex [--timestamp|-t timestamp] [--verbose] [-o configoption...] config

DESCRIPTION

       Amreindex reindex Amanda dump images by reading them from storage volume(s) and passing it to the
       application for reindexing.

       Amreindex works in two different ways, it can works on all dumps of a single run or for a list of
       specified dumps.

       It reindex the dumps speficied on the command line or it reindex all dumps from the run specified by the
       timestamp (or latest run if no timestamp specified).

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

       Not all applications support reindexing.

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

EXAMPLE

       # reindex the most recent dump

       # reindex a specific dump
       amreindex MYCONFIG localhost /boot 20131108013001
