>(/usr/adm/amanda/changer-status-clean: No such file or directory):
The Amanda changers now want to store three "state" files. All the file
names are based on the "changerfile" variable in your amanda.conf.
My guess is you have not set that variable, it's defaulting to
/usr/adm/amanda/changer and directory /usr/adm/amanda does not exist.
This is not your fault -- I think some new ideas slipped in without
fully comprehending their impact. Sorry.
Try setting "changerfile" to someplace Amanda can write, such as the
directory that holds your tapelist file. Make sure the name ends in
"/changer" because the other names add a suffix on to that.
For instance, if tapelist is in directory /usr/local/etc/amanda/xxx,
add this to amanda.conf:
changerfile "/usr/local/etc/amanda/xxx/changer"
This will cause these files to be created:
/usr/local/etc/amanda/xxx/changer-clean
/usr/local/etc/amanda/xxx/changer-access
/usr/local/etc/amanda/xxx/changer-slot
Or you can pick some other directory. Just as long as the Amanda user
has write access to it.
