I updated from Amanda 3.3.6 to Amanda 3.4.5 by building from source. The example amanda.conf didn't
look much different from what I was running, so, initially, I ran it with the same amanda.conf file.
We had changed out the SSDs being used for holding space, and the new 4TB SSDs were set up with
permissions 755 amanda:amanda. I changed the amanda.conf to point to them (/amanda3 and /amanda4).
The run last night failed on all DLEs, with:
FAILURE DUMP SUMMARY:
amreport: ERROR '/usr/local/etc/amanda/daily/amanda.conf', line 74:
warning: Keyword usetimestamps is deprecated.
localhost /etc lev 0 FAILED [chunker1 died]

localhost/home/bio/evazey/./evazey3 lev 0 FAILED [chunker1 died]
etc. ...
The holding space was completely empty.
The file /tmp/amanda/server/daily/driver.20170822233002.debug had lines in it
like:
Wed Aug 23 00:18:58.716563539 2017: pid 4470: thd-0xa78000: driver:
rename_tmp_holding: open of
/amanda4/20170822233002/localhost._home_bio_evazey_._evazey3.0.tmp failed:
No such file or directory
Is it possible that it is as simple as the deprecated usetimestamps being actually worse than just
deprecated?
I'm continuing to look through things, but I wanted to get this off to the list while it was still
early in my day.
