Here’s some old code of mine for a backup system from c. 2000.HEADmain

I used to really hate AMANDA.

+
+What needs to be done, in order of priority, before I will consider
+this package done:
+
+Mail reports. This includes making sure everything gets logged properly,
+and not just dumping to stderr and being ignored.
+
+Use backup estimates, dump according to size.
+
+Don't dump immediately when holding disk is full and dump volume can
+fit.
+
+Make more use of return values.
+
+Handle dumping straight to tape when the holding disk isn't big enough
+to hold the dump.
+
+Properly schedule taping when more than one volume can't be dumped to
+the holding disk.
+
+Do backup scheduling. Actually use backup levels instead of only doing
+level 0's (which is extremely lame).
+
+Give this thing away to the rest of the world.
+
+Unify common sources.
