Hey, I have a rather strange problem. I had to restore a complete server from backup recently, no problem, everything went smoothly. However, after this, I can't seem to get a fresh backup of it. I've tried everything from reinstalling amanda to changing the machine's hostname (both the machines real hostname and the one in amanda), but still I get this in my daily report: dc104 ar0s1a lev 0 FAILED [Estimate timeout from dc104]
I've got 115 entries in my disklist (on some 60 hosts) and this is the only one I can't get to work. There doesn't seem to be any network problems between the amanda server and the client either. This does look like a networking problem, but the machines can communicate freely and without any problems. In amandad.debug on the client I get: -bash-2.05b# cat amandad.20050914010102000.debug amandad: debug 1 pid 20112 ruid 2 euid 2: start at Wed Sep 14 01:01:02 2005 amandad: version 2.4.5 amandad: build: VERSION="Amanda-2.4.5" amandad: BUILT_DATE="Thu Aug 25 17:46:51 CEST 2005" amandad: BUILT_MACH="FreeBSD tlnordic.moduleweb.net 4.9-STABLE FreeBSD 4.9-STABLE #0: Mon Jan 5 23:35:10 CET 2004 [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/GENERIC i386" amandad: CC="cc" amandad: CONFIGURE_COMMAND="'./configure' '--libexecdir=/usr/local/libexec/amanda' '--with-amandahosts' '--with-fqdn' '--with-dump-honor-nodump' '--with-buffered-dump' '--without-server' '--disable-libtool' '--prefix=/usr/local' '--with-user=operator' '--with-group=operator' '--with-gnutar-listdir=/usr/local/var/amanda/gnutar-lists' '--with-index-server=eclipse.rackhosting.com' '--with-tape-server=eclipse.rackhosting.com' '--with-config=ModuleWeb' '--prefix=/usr/local' '--build=i386-portbld-freebsd4.9'" amandad: paths: bindir="/usr/local/bin" sbindir="/usr/local/sbin" amandad: libexecdir="/usr/local/libexec/amanda" amandad: mandir="/usr/local/man" AMANDA_TMPDIR="/tmp/amanda" amandad: AMANDA_DBGDIR="/tmp/amanda" amandad: CONFIG_DIR="/usr/local/etc/amanda" DEV_PREFIX="/dev/" amandad: RDEV_PREFIX="/dev/r" DUMP="/sbin/dump" amandad: RESTORE="/sbin/restore" VDUMP=UNDEF VRESTORE=UNDEF amandad: XFSDUMP=UNDEF XFSRESTORE=UNDEF VXDUMP=UNDEF VXRESTORE=UNDEF amandad: SAMBA_CLIENT=UNDEF GNUTAR="/usr/bin/tar" amandad: COMPRESS_PATH="/usr/bin/gzip" amandad: UNCOMPRESS_PATH="/usr/bin/gzip" LPRCMD="/usr/bin/lpr" amandad: MAILER="/usr/bin/Mail" amandad: listed_incr_dir="/usr/local/var/amanda/gnutar-lists" amandad: defs: DEFAULT_SERVER="eclipse.rackhosting.com" amandad: DEFAULT_CONFIG="ModuleWeb" amandad: DEFAULT_TAPE_SERVER="eclipse.rackhosting.com" amandad: DEFAULT_TAPE_DEVICE="/dev/null" HAVE_MMAP HAVE_SYSVSHM amandad: LOCKING=POSIX_FCNTL DEBUG_CODE AMANDA_DEBUG_DAYS=4 amandad: BSD_SECURITY USE_AMANDAHOSTS CLIENT_LOGIN="operator" amandad: FORCE_USERID HAVE_GZIP COMPRESS_SUFFIX=".gz" amandad: COMPRESS_FAST_OPT="--fast" COMPRESS_BEST_OPT="--best" amandad: UNCOMPRESS_OPT="-dc" amandad: time 0.000: got packet: -------- Amanda 2.4 REQ HANDLE 00F-80930508 SEQ 1126652514 SECURITY USER operator SERVICE sendsize OPTIONS features=fffffeff9ffe0f;maxdumps=1;hostname=dc104; DUMP ar0s1a 0 1970:1:1:0:0:0 -1 OPTIONS |;auth=bsd;compress-fast;index; DUMP ar0s1a 1 2005:8:10:12:30:11 -1 OPTIONS |;auth=bsd;compress-fast;index; -------- amandad: time 0.000: sending ack: ---- Amanda 2.4 ACK HANDLE 00F-80930508 SEQ 1126652514 ---- amandad: time 0.001: bsd security: remote host eclipse.rackhosting.com user operator local user operator amandad: time 0.001: amandahosts security check passed amandad: time 0.001: running service "/usr/local/libexec/amanda/sendsize" amandad: time 599.378: got packet: ---- Amanda 2.4 REQ HANDLE 00F-80930508 SEQ 1126652514 SECURITY USER operator SERVICE sendsize OPTIONS features=fffffeff9ffe0f;maxdumps=1;hostname=dc104; DUMP ar0s1a 0 1970:1:1:0:0:0 -1 OPTIONS |;auth=bsd;compress-fast;index; DUMP ar0s1a 1 2005:8:10:12:30:11 -1 OPTIONS |;auth=bsd;compress-fast;index; ---- amandad: time 599.378: received dup P_REQ packet, ACKing it amandad: time 599.378: sending ack: ---- Amanda 2.4 ACK HANDLE 00F-80930508 SEQ 1126652514 ---- amandad: time 1199.936: got packet: ---- Amanda 2.4 REQ HANDLE 00F-80930508 SEQ 1126652514 SECURITY USER operator SERVICE sendsize OPTIONS features=fffffeff9ffe0f;maxdumps=1;hostname=dc104; DUMP ar0s1a 0 1970:1:1:0:0:0 -1 OPTIONS |;auth=bsd;compress-fast;index; DUMP ar0s1a 1 2005:8:10:12:30:11 -1 OPTIONS |;auth=bsd;compress-fast;index; ---- amandad: time 1199.936: received dup P_REQ packet, ACKing it amandad: time 1199.936: sending ack: ---- Amanda 2.4 ACK HANDLE 00F-80930508 SEQ 1126652514 ---- amandad: time 2951.811: sending REP packet: ---- Amanda 2.4 REP HANDLE 00F-80930508 SEQ 1126652514 OPTIONS features=fffffeff9ffe7f; ar0s1a 0 SIZE 30567356 ar0s1a 1 SIZE 17959269 ---- amandad: time 2961.819: dgram_recv: timeout after 10 seconds amandad: time 2961.819: waiting for ack: timeout, retrying amandad: time 2971.827: dgram_recv: timeout after 10 seconds amandad: time 2971.827: waiting for ack: timeout, retrying amandad: time 2981.835: dgram_recv: timeout after 10 seconds amandad: time 2981.835: waiting for ack: timeout, retrying amandad: time 2991.843: dgram_recv: timeout after 10 seconds amandad: time 2991.843: waiting for ack: timeout, retrying amandad: time 3001.851: dgram_recv: timeout after 10 seconds amandad: time 3001.851: waiting for ack: timeout, giving up!
