Not exactly... > FAILURE AND STRANGE DUMP SUMMARY: > wcnotes /maildb2 lev 1 FAILED [dumps way too big, must skip incremental dumps] What it's telling you here is that the sum of *all the dumps* is too big. It had to FAIL one partition to get the tape usage below 'tapelength'. Look in the corresponding amdump.N file for all the gory details on how amanda made this decision. You may need to play with the bump* flags in amanda.conf, so that amanda is more willing to do a higher level dumps of filesystems rather than FAILing them. -- Joshua Baker-LePain Department of Biomedical Engineering Duke University
