Hello Everyone, I've recently deployed amanda. The client forgot tapes on several occasions and I've got 4 backups in my holding area. I initiated the amflush command and followed the instructions. The job kicked off in the background and I've been using:
ps -ef |grep amanda to see if the process is still running, which it is. When I do a top command it's using lots of CPU time. It's been runninng for several hours now and my logs haven't been populating since it started. Here's the last few entries: START amflush date 20041207 START driver date 20041207 START taper datestamp 20041207 label Normal18 tape 0 I'm a bit confused because I now see a folder 20041207 in my /var/holding. It's empty, which is good if it's working properly. Why isn't anything being populated too(amflush and log file)? Is there any way to tell if it's running properly? thanks, James
