Hello amanda users, I just updates amanda 3.3.0 to 3.3.0 on a Solaris 10/x86 system. The system is both the server and the client, there are no other clients of this system.
We have ~265 DLEs on this system (large zfs arrays and all samba shares are their own file systems and DLE, thank goodness I was able to talk my manager out of making all user directories their own DLE as well, though they are their own zfs file systems). The following errors are -not- new with 3.3.3, we've had them for a while, I'd hoped the upgrade would take are of it. Also the amcheck leaves an amanda-check file around for one of the zfs file systems (yes, configured to use zfs snapshot). [I'm pretty sure these two errors are related to one another] The filesystem amanda-*-check file left is for the same filesystem each night, unless we add/remove DLE/filesystems. So I think it is the nth filesystem and at the limit of the open file counter, rather than something in the file system itself. I was hoping there was an easy fix for this. Last I recall on the topic it had to do with the fillm being a 32 bit rather than 64 bit value (I could be wrong about this). Otherwise all # amcheck tests run successfully. Will run # amdump this evening but do not anticipate any issues there. thank you, Brian > amcheck -c finsen Amanda Backup Client Hosts Check -------------------------------- ERROR: finsen: service selfcheck: selfcheck: Error opening pipe to child: Too many open files ERROR: finsen: service /usr/local/libexec/amanda/selfcheck failed: pid 8590 exited with code 1 Client check: 1 host checked in 83.304 seconds. 2 problems found.
