hello,
I get the following message when restoring one of my
full dumps with amrestore:
[tape-serveur]# /usr/local/amanda/sbin/amrestore /dev/nst0 planeto
amrestore: 0: skipping start of tape: date 20010502 label TAPE4
amrestore: 1: skipping jupiter._home_zone1.20010502.2
amrestore: 2: skipping jupiter._home_zone2.20010502.1
amrestore: 3: skipping jupiter._home_zone3.20010502.0
amrestore: 4: restoring planeto._home_zone10.20010502.0
amrestore: write error: File too large
The target disk is big enough to handle the whole taped archive.
According to the mail reports, the amount of datas saved
on this tape is 17.8Gb. I use 20Gb/40Gb DLT Tapes.
Could it be a problem with my tapetype config or with
the tape hardware itself?
Of course, a "tar xvf" on this archive will fail at the
end of file:
[tape-server]#cat planeto._home_zone10.20010502.0 | tar xvf -
...
tar: 511 garbage bytes ignored at end of archive
tar: Unexpected EOF in archive
tar: Error exit delayed from previous errors
...
any advice?
thanks!
Pierre.
