Debian Jessie, amanda 3.3.6
After a backup, amreport says things like:
STRANGE DUMP DETAILS:
/-- sbox.slsware.net / lev 1 STRANGE
sendbackup: start [sbox.slsware.net:/ level 1]
sendbackup: info BACKUP=/bin/tar

sendbackup: end
The directory may be on a different partition, but it's not on a
different filesystem. They're all on /, and right at the top. They're
all RAID 1 too, if that makes any difference.
Part of my disklist is:
## sbox
sbox.slsware.net / high-tar 40
sbox.slsware.net /boot high-tar 40
sbox.slsware.net /home high-tar 40
sbox.slsware.net /tmp high-tar 40
sbox.slsware.net /usr high-tar 40
sbox.slsware.net /var high-tar 40
Notice that it doesn't ask for /mnt...
Then down at the bottom it says:
DUMP SUMMARY:
HOSTNAME DISK L ORIG-kB OUT-kB ...
-------------------------------------------------
sbox.slsware.net / 1 2870 2870
sbox.slsware.net /boot 1 10 10
sbox.slsware.net /home 0 7691120 7691120
sbox.slsware.net /tmp 1 280 280
sbox.slsware.net /usr 0 3114740 3114740
sbox.slsware.net /var 0 1167590 1167590
It says some of the DLEs aren't dumped, then it dumps them. And I've
restored from some of the 'not dumped' DLEs, using amrecover (so
amanda's directory of the tape exists).
I've been backing up with Amanda for years, and didn't see this back
then. (This has been happening for quite a while; I'm just wondering
about it now.)
I haven't been able to find the error. What's wrong (if anything)?
