Sep 24 02:45:32 daesrv /kernel: pid 7638 (gzip), uid 2: exited on signal 11 (core dumped)
The above message shows gzip crashed on daesrv last night. It crashed because there is a hardware problem on that machine, but since it was probably part of an amanda backup that did not work as expected, I wanted to be sure amanda had reported something about it to you. -client admin
Amanda herself had reported a strange error in her mail report:
daesrv.fna /usr lev 0 STRANGE
.....
| DUMP: 33.76% done, finished in 1:20
? sendbackup: index tee cannot write [Broken pipe]
| DUMP: Broken pipe
| DUMP: The ENTIRE dump is aborted.
? index returned 1
??error [/sbin/dump returned 3, compress got signal 11]? dumper: strange [missing size line from sendbackup]
? dumper: strange [missing end line from sendbackup]
\--------
But it appears that she went ahead and stored the partial data on tape anyway, and considered this a good level 0 backup. (admin config due shows the next level 0 is 7 days away)
daesrv.fnal.gov /usr 0 0 3605024 -- 47:40 1260.7 12:35 4773.9
Why doesn't amanda recognize this as a failure? Am I missing something that I should have noticed? Or am I reading it wrong (the fact that "due" implies a level 0 was done)?
