Are you using tapes yet Stefan? If useing vtapes, that file would likely be visible by an ls on that tapes disk directory. Using vtapes on a 2T spinning rust disk, and my wrapper script, I show for last nights run: root@coyote:/home/amanda# ls /amandatapes/Dailys/data/ 00000.Dailys-50 00019.coyote._home_gene_src.0 00038.GO704._usr_local.0 00057.coyote._usr_music.1 00001.GO704._root.0 00020.coyote._home_gene_Mail.0 00039.picnc._boot.0 00058.coyote._usr_dlds_books.1 00002.shop._root.0 00021.coyote._home_gene.4 00040.GO704._var_lib_amanda.0 00059.coyote._usr_dlds_tgzs.1 00003.GO704._var_amanda.1 00022.coyote._home_amanda.1 00041.GO704._etc.0 00060.coyote._usr_dlds_misc.1 00004.GO704._usr_lib_amanda.1 00023.coyote.Downloadsam.1 00042.coyote._usr_lib.0 00061.coyote._home_gene_Music.1 00005.shop._var_amanda.0 00024.coyote._home_gene_Download.1 00043.coyote._usr_local.1 00062.coyote._home_gene_Videos.1 00006.shop._usr_local.1 00025.coyote._home_ups.1 00044.coyote._lib.0 00063.coyote._boot.1 00007.lathe._usr_src.0 00026.coyote._home_nut.1 00045.coyote._opt.2 00064.coyote._bin.1 00008.shop._usr_lib_amanda.1 00027.coyote.Downloadsnz.1 00046.coyote._usr_share.1 00065.coyote._sbin.1 00009.lathe._etc.0 00028.coyote._GenesAmandaHelper-0.61_config-bak.5 00047.coyote._home_gene_Pictures.1 00066.coyote._home_gene_LCNC-isos.1 00010.lathe._var_lib_amanda.0 00029.coyote._GenesAmandaHelper-0.61.0 00048.coyote._usr_src.1 00067.coyote._usr_sbin.1 00011.shop._etc.0 00030.coyote._var.4 00049.coyote._usr_pix.1 00068.coyote._usr_games.1 00012.lathe._var_amanda.1 00031.picnc._.0 00050.coyote._usr_bin.1 00069.coyote.PublicAAZ.1 00013.lathe._usr_lib_amanda.1 00032.coyote._root.0 00051.coyote._etc.1 00070.coyote.PublicAap.1 00014.lathe._usr_local.1 00033.lathe._home.0 00052.coyote._usr_include.1 configuration.tar 00015.lathe._root.0 00034.shop._home.0 00053.coyote.PublicAqz.1 indices.tar 00016.shop._lib_firmware.0 00035.coyote._home_gene_PublicB.0 00054.coyote._usr_movies.1 00017.shop._var_lib_amanda.0 00036.GO704._home.0 00055.coyote._home_gene_Documents.1 00018.lathe._lib_firmware.0 00037.GO704._lib_firmware.0 00056.coyote._CoCo.1 The pair of tar files are from my wrapper.
