everything changed yesterday: server died, mobo flaky or so Now up on a fallback hardware ... and noticed that I didn't have a DLE containing the amanda DBs and indexes (only /etc with the configs) Not fatal, but ugly. I could restore stuff from tapes already ... make sure you have that encryption passphrase somewhere else ... That situation is stress. Glad the data wasn't touched ... it's on the SAN storage and OK.
