amanda 3.1.2, solaris x86 server, solaris x86 client, client != server client successfully backing up.
We moved a zpool from another machine and imported several non-global zones onto the client. Underlying mount points seem to be protection 700, we now see the following error from amcheck. ERROR: mailserv: Script 'amzfs-snapshot' command 'POST-DLE-AMCHECK' exited with status 1: see /tmp/amanda/client/curie/selfcheck.20130215114153.debug Client check: 1 host checked in 9.278 seconds. 32 problems found. amdump produces its own errors, but the file systems system actually seem to be backing up just fine. The success of the backups would be amanda's runtar which is suid root. The failure, at least accourding to the message above, would be amanda attempting to run # df, withoug sufficient access. - Me? I think the restrictive permissions on the mount points are not good protection, if you, if you've taken over the global zone you've taken over the non-global zones. Restricting the mount point permissions will not contain a breach in a non-global zone, that is not where the access lives. Probably not an argument I have the energy to make with the other admin. May need to ACL the mount points to allow amanda access (just because the errors make the amanda output files very ugly and are really false negatives, as far as overall success are concerned. Is there an in-Amanda solution? I'll post my work-around to the list, once I've gotten around to working on this and have it tested. thanks, Brian --- Brian R Cuttler brian.cutt...@wadsworth.org Computer Systems Support (v) 518 486-1697 Wadsworth Center (f) 518 473-6384 NYS Department of Health Help Desk 518 473-0773
