It would appear I have my tape size set to be slightly larger than the
tape really is (HP DAT24x6 changer). The issue I have now is a dump
failed for a large DLE and is sitting on disk, this dump is just
slightly larger than the tape so most likely putting in another tape and
flushing it is just going to fail again.
If I lower the tape size in the config, cleanup some files on that DLE
things will work again but that DLE dump will be stuck on the holding
disk forever.
What is the “proper” way to deal with this? Correct my Amanda config
problems obviously, cleanup the disk so it will fit on one tape, cleanup
that DLE files from the holding disk, mark that DLE as requiring a full
dump next run and just let Amanda run normally?
I am waiting for a bit before I jump onto the tape splitting version as
this is my production server for the entire company and I am a little
shy of something so new.
I believe the easiest way is just delete the holdingdisk file(s).
I'm actually curious if Amanda would now assume that this backup
succeeded. She shouldn't.
If it was a level 0 backup that you eliminated, then try an "amadmin
daily due" to find out, what Amanda is planning for this DLE.
If the level 0 is not planned for the next run, then issue an
"amadmin daily force host /the/dle".
