I've had some problems with my RH7.2 amanda server - the backup runs ok but when I run amcheck I get this.
Amanda Backup Client Hosts Check -------------------------------- Client check: 1 host checked in 3.996 seconds, 0 problems found
(brought to you by Amanda 2.4.2p2)
bash-2.05$ /usr/sbin/amcheck kdp -m
bash-2.05$ Can't create transcript file ./xfh54EUCZ09037: Permission denied
Can anybody tell me where my permissions are wrong or where amanda is trying to create this file.
Strange! There is no such message in the amanda-2.4.4 sources. I don't have 2.4.2p2 sources hanging around.
Is the output above a "copy/paste" from a screen?
Then it's strange that you get a prompt back before the errormsg.
I suppose the first lines are the result of an amcheck without the -m option. There are no errors, so it wouldn't send mail anyway.
If you do introduce an error, like eject the tape, does it send mail?
