One of my DLE fails to backup correctly from time to time. It happened twice this week. This is a bit annoying because it changes everyday (it's an oracle cold/hot backup destination for dabase files) and I really need to get this stuff backed up every day. This is the only DLE exhibiting this behavior.
I have to use anoither tape in the morning and RE-BACKUP this DLE (Which normally works fine) It's not really huge. The error I have in the amanda report is: FAILURE AND STRANGE DUMP SUMMARY: sol /disk1/RDBMS_BACKUP lev 0 FAILED [data timeout] It's no really huge. I'n using amanda 2.4.5 the tape server is centos 4.2 (RHEL 4 Clone) and the client with the failing DLE is a sun solaris 9 box. Is there a timeout I can configure for this ? What might cause this ? The client is in the DMZ, but I have FW1 rules allowing for the backup UDP and TCP ports.
