I've been trying to get our restore procedure setup, and now I'm at the
point where I eed to restore a file and can't get it done.
At first, all connections to the server using amrecover were refused. I
found a few setup issues that have been corrected:
1) At Amanda did not set up the amidxtape and amandaidx services for xinetd.
I redid the file to include those services
2) The backup user was listed as the owner for amrecover. I changed it to
root.
Now I can start amrecover, make the initial connection and set up parameters
like working date, host, and tape, but when I entered "extract" here was the
result:
-----------------------------------------
amrecover> extract
Extracting files using tape drive /dev/nst0 on host eagle.
The following tapes are needed: weekly01
Restoring files in to directory /var
Continue? (Y/n): Y
Load tape weekly01 now
Continue? (Y/n): Y
cannot connect to eagle: Connection refused
amrecover - can't talk to tape server
amrecover> quit
200 Good bye
------------------------------------------
Eagle is both the client and the server in this case.
Any ideas on what I need to do to get the process to complete? Thanks!
