Recall that it's not the device numbers of the /dev/sd* that will change -- it's the devices from which you're mounting your filesystems, which IIRC are LVM volumes. So you should be checking the major/minor numbers of those device files. If the --no-check-device option is not working correctly, then it would best be demonstrated with a small example using *only* tar, and leaving Amanda out of the situation. I think you determined that the holding-disk problems were a disk failure. Dustin -- Storage Software Engineer http://www.zmanda.com
