To be sure that I would hit the problem again I didn't load new tapes so after the holddding filled up I have a bunch of gtar running and just wasting a lot of cycles. A typical example (sorry for the long lines): amanda 3555936 3557855 0 - - 0:00 <defunct> amanda 3557855 1 0 05:37:39 ? 1:30 /opt/amanda/amanda1/libexec/sendbackup amandad bsdtcp root 3568087 3557855 0 05:40:02 ? 277:35 gtar --create --file - --directory /data/mafalda/mafalda1/susanita/sandra/DTI - Tracing the sendbackup process yields no output while the gtar one gives just an uninterupted flow of lines: 68mS tar(3568087): write(1, <fd 63 e3 6c ff 42 3c df 87 41 82 bf e9 dd 95 2c>..., 10240) errno = 32 (Broken pipe) Don't know if this is going to be of any help... jf > > Could you try to find what each process (amanda,sendbackup,tar) are > doing? on which system call they are hung? > On linux, I would use strace for that. > > Jean-Louis > > Jean-Francois Malouin wrote: > >Jean-Louis, > > > >The amdump just finished and because amanda ran out of tapes > >(runtapes=10) it completed badly leaving stuff in the holdding > >disk.
