I can't seem to get amrecover to work.
I have a single server running amanda, with an SDLT
drive attached to it. All my clients are being backed up without problems. (I
have done recent recoveries "manually.")
However, when I try to run amrecover from a client,
when I issue the extract, amrecover fails and tells me to check the amidxtaped
log file on the server.
I do and at the end of it I see:
Ready to execv amrestore with:
path = /usr/local/sbin/amrestore argv[0] = "amrestore" argv[1] = "-h" argv[2] = "-p" argv[3] = "/dev/nst0" argv[4] = "lun" argv[5] = "^/home$" argv[6] = "20030120" amrestore: could not open tape /dev/nst0: Permission denied amidxtaped: amrestore terminated normally with status: 2 Rewinding tape: no tape online amidxtaped: pid 27373 finish time Thu Feb 13 17:16:29 2003 the amrecover command I use on the
client:
/usr/local/sbin/amrecover -C set1 -s godzilla
-t godzilla -d /dev/nst0
godzilla is my amanda/tape server, lun is the
client I'm trying to run it on. all the clients are having no problem talking to
/dev/nst0 on the tape server during backup, why would amrecover be having a
problem. Something to do with having to run amrecover as root on the client
????
Clues ??
thanks ....
