For a few days, things have not been going well in this backup set. I found out / (!) was full on the server and write to /tmp/amanda failed. That has been resolved now. Amcheck is ok for both -c and -s but at dump, this happens. The tape drive is DAT24 and I've successfully read and written to it with tar, dd, and amrestore.
I don't really know how it could say /etc is way too big etc. It shouldn't be out of tape either. The size looks weird too. I thought I'd post this before I make a dummy config and start running more tests on it, in case anyone has ideas. All (but maybe one or two) machines are Linux (RH, Debian, RH6 server) and all are using vendor amanda's. Everything has worked smoothly for about 0.5-2 years for every machine. No changes apart from routine upgrades have been done to any of the systems lately.
