Setting Up the Administrator Mailbox from
the Computer
Amanda@Work.Group/DOS is shipped with mailbox 999 as shown in the
following figures. It has two functions: it is the System Administrator
mailbox and it provides an automatic hang up.
For example, you can use G(999), which translates from the Token
Programming Language as “Go to mailbox 999 and process it.” Because
mailbox 999 has H (for hangup) in its Extension field and both Do Not
Disturb and Screen Calls? locked OFF, G(999) results in a disconnection.
For more information about the G() command, see
Installing
Amanda@Work.Group/DOS .
The only recommended change to mailbox 999 is the addition of one or
more notification records with DISK as their type. In this way, Amanda
notifies you when disk space falls below a predefined level (the default is
20%). For example, you can be paged or have a voice mail message left for
you at your personal mailbox. For information about creating a notification
record, see “Creating a Notification Record and a Notification Template” on
page 121 and “Creating a Notification Record from an Existing Template”
on page 126. See
