Hello,

First of all... Greate Job!

But I have small problem... I can't backup not mounted file system. Problem is in amgtar software... they need to calculate estimate but it try to do on /dev/vg0/some-lvm Ther is any option to give back to amgtar temporary location in /tmp of mounted LVM ?

Thanks in advanced!

I try to add 

sub command_pre_dle_estimate {
    my $self = shift;
    $self->setup();
    $self->create_snapshot();
    $self->mount_snapshot();
    print "PROPERTY directory $self->{directory}\n";
}

in amlvm-snapshot ... and it's sending PROPERTY ... but tar always want to use /dev/vg0/some-lvm

I'am not AMANDA expert ... I just copy this from amzfs-snapshot
