Now I suspect this is not an amanda problem.
As a test, I added two more lines to amanda's crontab file. Now it says:
0 16 * * 1-5 /usr/sbin/amcheck -m KBack 47 14 * * 1-5 /usr/sbin/amcheck -m KBack 49 14 * * 1-5 /usr/sbin/amcheck -m KBack 45 0 * * 2-6 /usr/sbin/amdump KBack
I get three "amcheck" email messages. The third (at 4 p.m.) says:
WARNING: marge: selfcheck request timed out. Host down?
But the other two do not. On marge, the latest amandad.*.debug and selfcheck.*.debug are dated 14:49. So it appears that something is happening at about 4 p.m. that is interferring with the communication with marge. Or maybe it's happening on the top of every hour? I'll try changing it to 4:05 p.m. and see if that makes a difference.
