As for me, I get no errors at all. The only message
I do get is from the amreport which says that the dump
of the file system has failed.
As of right now, I am trying several configs of different
dump type setups to see if it makes a difference. Although
they are the same that have been working for the last six years.

Can you post the exact error message you get from amanda?
You said 'broken pipe', where do you get it.
Telling 'tar estimate dying' or 'broken pipe' is useless if you don't show
how/where you get them.
The sendsize debug file looks good, please post the debug file that show the
error you get,

Tim,
That is weird. I've got a couple of Solaris 10/x86 system that
are all ZFS except for the boot partitions which are UFS.
My systems have also recently begun failing on the boot partitions,
even though I'm using server estimates. The ZFS based DLEs are all
backing up just fine.
That is 1 - UFS partition.
120 - ZFS partitions.
The errors I'm seeing are of the "broken pipe" type though.
I'm runing gtar 1.22.
Please let me know if you find the cause for your problems.

Hello all,
Sorry to post this question, as I have run out of ideas.
I am running a 2.6.1p2-3 server with the same as clients.
Recently a couple of clients are not able to backup their
/ file system. All of the other file systems on them
backup fine (/home /boot). After about 30 minutes the tar
process just dies and the estimate doesnt seem to get to the
server. The / is only about 10gig and until recently been
fine. These are old computers, however the /home part. is
20gig and has been fine.
I am using tar (now 1.20 after downgrading from 1.23 for
testing)
I have also tried using just calsize to to see if it made
a difference. The etimeout is set at 8000
dtimeout 3000
and the tail of the sendsize debug file I will paste below.
Thanks for any input
