The holding disk on our backup server died a couple of weeks ago and we have yet to get the replacement for it installed so for the last couple of weeks we've been dumping the backups which would normally go to the holding disk to a windows partition on a workstation (one of a couple with enough diskspace to do this). This appears to be running normally without problems except that amcheck always reports a problem which "Should be fixed before run, if possible."
The problem is that amcheck will report either 0 KB free, or some negative value because the partition which the samba share is mounted to has less than the amount of space to be left on that partition.
When amdump runs however, no problems occur.
Is there any way to get rid of these messages until we get the new drive installed? (which we 'll leave until the share is full enough to amflush)
