Package: amanda-client Version: 1:3.3.1-4 Severity: normal Hi,
I tried to recover data stored on my Debian 5.0.2 System running amanda 2.5.2p1-4. I was able to recover everything which is stored without compression using amrecover. I felt for the compressed images. In amrecover.debug I see it detects compression but it fails somehow to pipe the data through gzip before it goes into tar Here an excerpt from amrecover.debug Tue Sep 11 12:00:32 2012: thd-0x11a3a00: amrecover: send_to_tape_server: CONFIG=hilgers Tue Sep 11 12:00:32 2012: thd-0x11a3a00: amrecover: send_to_tape_server: LABEL=hilgers-4:15 Tue Sep 11 12:00:32 2012: thd-0x11a3a00: amrecover: send_to_tape_server: FSF=15 Tue Sep 11 12:00:32 2012: thd-0x11a3a00: amrecover: send_to_tape_server: HEADER Tue Sep 11 12:00:32 2012: thd-0x11a3a00: amrecover: send_to_tape_server: DEVICE=file:/amandatapes/hilgers Tue Sep 11 12:00:32 2012: thd-0x11a3a00: amrecover: send_to_tape_server: HOST=^clio3$ Tue Sep 11 12:00:32 2012: thd-0x11a3a00: amrecover: send_to_tape_server: DISK=^/export/software/WindowsMobile$ Tue Sep 11 12:00:32 2012: thd-0x11a3a00: amrecover: send_to_tape_server: DATESTAMP=20120911 Tue Sep 11 12:00:32 2012: thd-0x11a3a00: amrecover: send_to_tape_server: END Tue Sep 11 12:00:32 2012: thd-0x11a3a00: amrecover: read header 1448 => 1448 Tue Sep 11 12:00:32 2012: thd-0x11a3a00: amrecover: read header 1448 => 2896 ....
