RE: New client to Amanda dump returns RESULTS MISSING???

[Toomas Aas]

Hi!

 Is there an easy way to UNINSTALL Amanda? I need to do this because well
 first of all this isn't a server anymore and it was set up as user
 operator, and all my other clients are using amanda user.
 
 I'd like to completely uninstall everything server/client and then install a
 new version (amanda-client-2.4.3-4) with user as amanda.

If the existing version was installed from FreeBSD ports, you can do
something like this to uninstall it:

pkg_delete amanda-client-2.4.3b2
pkg_delete amanda-server-2.4.3b2

Then update your ports tree (see the FreeBSD handbook for details)

And then...

cd /usr/ports/misc/amanda-client
make AMANDA_USER=amanda AMANDA_GROUP=backup install

I know everyone here recommends that you get the latest source tarball
and build Amanda yourself from that, but the FreeBSD ports have worked
really well for me, FWIW.

Yeah I kind of figured it was going to turn out to be something like this.
Seems to actually be on the client side.

What I found is that this FreeBSD system had a previous version of Amanda,
both server and client packages. (amanda-2.4.3b2 beta???)

Any suggestions, recommendations???

 Any reason why Amanda is stating that the results are missing 
 for newly
 added client. This client is probably my only FreeBSD so far 
 to disklist. I
 did a df on tgs-1 (client) and added file systems I wanted, 
 next I added them to config disklist.
 
 However, I'm receiving errors for dump on this client.

I'm no amanda expert, but are you sure you're not getting any
amandahostsauth failed messages? I was getting a bunch of RESULTS MISSING
messages when my client wasn't allowing the server to connect:
