--- Begin Message ---I hope this is not a rerun of a previous topic but I have not found anything on the net yet. I have amanda 2.4.5 running on 2 different servers. The problem started about 5 or 6 weeks after implementing amanda. Kernel is 2.6. Several times, shortly after amanda started a backup the server locked up. I could not log on at the console and it did not respond to any services. It seems to be related to when amanda accesses the tape drive to write to tape. Can anyone point me in the right direction as to the cause (and a possible solution) to this problem. I have had to suspend backups on both servers since it happened on both.In fact, the first one ended up crashing 3 times and somehow the server became unrecoverable. I installed a totally new server with new SCSI card for the tape drive and it locked up after 1 week. Hopefully someone will have some insight. Thanks, Gordon
