Hi All, I had written to the list a little while ago regarding issues I was having with pigz, and not being able to retrieve from a 2nd tape. I then went on to test using normal gzip and retrieved from a 2nd tape without issue.
However, I've now run a set with 7 tapes, and am having trouble retrieving from them. I'm getting the "Not found in archive" message even though the files show in the index. This makes me think that maybe, after all, it was just my poor configuration and not pigz that was causing the issues! Can anyone shed any light on this or advise on how I can figure out why it thinks these files aren't in the archive even though they are in the index? as before, retrievals from the first tape work. My config is as follows; <---------- org "ORGBACKUP" # Title of report mailto "m...@mail.net" # recipients of report, space separated dumpuser "backup" # the user to run dumps under inparallel 4 # maximum dumpers that will run in parallel netusage 1000000 # maximum net bandwidth for Amanda, in KB per sec # a filesystem is due for a full backup once every day dumpcycle 0 days # the number of days in the fullback dump cycle runspercycle 1 # daily full backups runtapes 7 bumpsize 20 MB # minimum savings (threshold) to bump level 1 -> 2 bumpdays 1 # minimum days at each level bumpmult 4 # threshold = bumpsize * (level-1)**bumpmult tapedev "/dev/nst0" # Linux @ tuck, important: norewinding tpchanger "chg-zd-mtx" changerfile "/etc/amanda/ha/changer.conf" changerdev "/dev/sg4" tapetype LTO4 # what kind of tape it is (see tapetypes below) labelstr "^ORGSNAPSHOT-[0-9][0-9]*$" # label constraint regex: all tapes must match holdingdisk hd1 { comment "main holding disk" directory "/tapehold" # where the holding disk is use -1000 Mb # how much space can we use on it # a non-positive value means: # use all space but that value chunksize 1Gb # size of chunk if you want big dump to be # dumped on multiple files on holding disks # N Kb/Mb/Gb split images in chunks of size N # The maximum value should be # (MAX_FILE_SIZE - 1Mb) # 0 same as INT_MAX bytes } infofile "/etc/amanda/org/curinfo" # database directory logdir "/etc/amanda/org/log" # log filename indexdir "/etc/amanda/org/index" define tapetype LTO4 { comment "HP LTO4" length 804191104 kbytes filemark 0 kbytes speed 90511 kps blocksize 32 kbytes } define dumptype orgbackup { program "GNUTAR" comment "HABACKUP" tape_splitsize 40Gb split_diskbuffer "/tapehold/" fallback_splitsize 10Gb index priority high auth "bsd" } --------->
