Sorry, I think what I should be doing is splitting the amdump and amflush. In other words, all dumps go to disk, and then I can manually flush ('cause I'm having this intermittence). But the report does say driver: going into degraded mode because of tape error. Even though I do have plenty holding disk (Remember -- 4GB tapes): Holding disk /export/backupstore: 26773908 KB disk space available, that's plenty Although before I complain about _this_ problem, I should probably upgrade. Like I mentioned to someone else -- I'm being a distro weenie. I _like_ everything Debianized -- will see if the debian package scripts drop in over the new version. By the way, the latest beta is considered stable? ..Brian -- Init Systems - Linux consulting 031 767-0139 082 769-2320 [EMAIL PROTECTED]
