I am using the ubuntu amanda-server and amanda-client packages (3.3.6)
on ubuntu server 16.04 to backup to virtual tapes on an NFS mounted file
system. Everything is great on the backup server. I can run amrecover
locally and recover files. But I thought I'd try mounting the NFS share
on a client machine to see if I could recover files that way. I thought
if the backup server ever goes down, I might still be able to recover
files on the client machine.
So I installed amanda-server on the client machine and copied the
contents of /etc/amanda/DailySet1/ to the client. Then I ran:
# amrecover DailySet1 -o auth=local -s localhost
That gives me the error message, ""501 Could not read config file for
DailySet1!". I amd doing this as root. Root does have permission to open/read
/etc/amanda/DailySet1/amanda.conf.
