Re: DLE RESULTS MISSING after failed backup due to drive not being turned on
amdump now seems to think it should include the old test DLE in new backups. The test DLE is not actually included in the backup as it has no information on where to get it from but it still shows up in the status screen from amdump. When i removed it i ran amadmin delete for the test DLE and then removed it from the disklist. Log has "INFO planner Adding new disk localhost:test" and amdump log has "localhost:test overdue 19105 days for level 0". I removed the tape which the test DLE was on (and some actual backups with it) with 'amrmtape backup --keep-label --cleanup ROT09' and now amadmin find does not see the test DLE anymore and seems to also have resolved amdump. Do i really need to do it this way or should i have done something else to remove the old DLE?

I have frequently done an "ls" on my holding disk, and manually deleted files and directories older than 7 days ago, which clearly amanda is not planning to flush to tape. 7 days because I ran amanda nightly.

RESULTS MISSING on all DLE when only one estimate fails?
Hallo! I've installed Amanda 3.3.3 on a Centos server. Sometimes backups are failing with "RESULTS MISSING" and "driver: WARNING: got empty schedule from planner". I think this is mostly because of estimate timeouts. I see "planner: ERROR Some estimate timeout on a.example.com, using server estimate if possible". Thats something I can handle. But why do I get "RESULTS MISSING" for all hosts/DLE and "... empty schedule ..." when only one estimate fails? There are planner/estimate results from all my DLE, except one, in the logs. Shouldn't the amanda planner return a schedule without the failing DLE? Thanks! Matthias

Re: Dump results missing from report?
George schreef: I recently set up an amanda (2.4.3-4) server servicing two amanda clients, all running RHES 3.0 Linux. For both clients, I chose to use GNU Tar (1.13.25) to backup partitions vice dump. Everything works quite well, but I'm used to seeing a dump summary in the emailed report from other amanda environments I've set up.

amandad still running/ RESULTS MISSING
I am having a problem with amanda whereby some of the dumps (DLE's on the amanda server itself) are showing as RESULTS MISSING in the logs. There is an amandad process which is still running after quite a long time (24 hours) and which has a defunct child process: backup3318 0.0 0.1 3044 1076 ?SMay26 0:00 amandad backup3320 0.0 0.0 00 ?ZMay26 0:00 [amandad ] I googled the RESULTS MISSING error and checked that the appropriate files have SUID set and that the entries in inetd are right (they have not been changed). The only change that I have made in the last couple days is to add a DLE on a remote system (which already had other DLE's being backed up). Anyone have a clue for me? TIA, Vicki

RE: New client to Amanda dump returns "RESULTS MISSING"???
Thanks! I actually just fixed it. There were many weird things about this setup. I found it installed in different locations and different versions of the source files. Yesterday I thought I completely uninstalled everything and found that the reports said same thing this morning. So what I did then was searched for every damn (excuse my French) Amanda Makefile (locate amanda | grep Makefile | more) and CD'd to there and did a make uninstall. I found that a few actually took the uninstall. Once I did that I edited the "inted" file to disable any amanda stuff, rebooted and found no more messages or anything. Then I was able to install the latest version (amanda-2.4.4.tar) with user=amanda group=backup, --- ./configure --without-server --with-user=amanda --with-group=backup make make install --- edited & restarted inetd. Still came up with an issue and what appears to have fixed it was checking/setting the permissions for amanda as owner for all relevant amanda directories. Mainly "/tmp/amanda" was owned by someone other than amanda. `amcheck` returns no errors now from the backup server!!! Here's the selfcheck debug file on the client: - /usr/local/libexec/selfcheck: version 2.4.4 selfcheck: time 0.001: checking disk /dev/da0s1e selfcheck: time 0.001: device /dev/da0s1e selfcheck: time 0.001: disk "/dev/da0s1e" OK selfcheck: time 0.001: amdevice "/dev/da0s1e" OK selfcheck: time 0.001: device "/dev/da0s1e" OK selfcheck: time 0.001: checking disk /dev/da0s1a selfcheck: time 0.001: device /dev/da0s1a selfcheck: time 0.001: disk "/dev/da0s1a" OK selfcheck: time 0.001: amdevice "/dev/da0s1a" OK selfcheck: time 0.001: device "/dev/da0s1a" OK selfcheck: time 0.001: pid 247 finish time Wed May 28 10:15:27 2003 - Wooo-hooo!!!

RE: New client to Amanda dump returns "RESULTS MISSING"???
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???) 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".

re: results missing
Hello again. i accidently deleted the previous answer to my question and therefore did a little research myself, as i forgot what conf files you asked for. The conclusion is that i found out my inetd.conf was not configured correctly to run amanda client on the server itself. once i restored old inetd.conf also, all problems disappeared. So, another reason for RESULTS MISSING has popped up. Laas Toom

Hello, I use amanda to back up my whole site: freebsd workstations as well as windows samba shares. recently my backup server chrashed and i had to reinstall the operatingsystem (in the way upgrading it from freebsd 4.6 to 4.7). After what i copied amanda config files to the locations they were before crash (the index files survived). Now amanda backs up only the freebsd workstations, but for all samba shares amanda says: RESULTS MISSING. What is the problem? How can i eliminate it? The Amanda Faq-o-matic did not help, because i know the system worked before, so i do not need to make any alters to my filesystems or catalog tree. Another strange thing happened when i moved one of my freebsd servers filesystems from a ccd too small to a bigger ccd device (everything is the same, exept the /etc/fstab row that mounts the filesystem). Now amanda says the disk is offline. Thanks in advance, Laas Toom

Re: amanda 2.4.3 RESULTS MISSING
Oh yes, the "refuses to mail report" thing. I've had it too. Have no idea *why* but the only fix I've heard about works for me, too. Fix: remove thelbl-temp line from your configuration. The report should get emailed OK now. Tomorrow you can probably put the line back in, and it will be okay for a while. Maybe this "fix" can prompt an actual developer to recognize what it causing this?

Well, if locate says your system is clean of older stuff, then that was my best shot at it.

The reason I ask is that the normal amanda ./configuration will put stuff in /usr/local, but the rpm install like from redhat, puts it in /usr. Since /usr/local is usually the later thing in the $PATH, the old stuff might be being found first. Just a thought. Locate will tell that tale easily enough. Get the latest version of amanda from Jean-Louis's site at umontreal, link near the bottom of the amanda.org web page, and check the ChangeLog, you might find something related there. Since thats the Jan 4th issue when I last looked last night, and I've been running that one since the 5th with no problems, you might even build and install it. I long ago commited all the ./configuration options to a script so I can install the new one exactly like the older one I'm overwriting. I recommend this practice because it protects you from forgetting what options you gave it the last time you built it. Old coots like me need all the help in that dept. we can get. :-) -- Cheers, Gene AMD K6-III@500mhz 320M Athlon1600XP@1400mhz 512M 99.22% setiathome rank, not too shabby for a WV hillbilly

But then I noticed these lines of the report : > NOTES: > taper: tape PRMC-0 kb 153824 fm 2 [OK] Which suggests 153MB were written to tape. So, it seems like a reporting or a logging problem. I use 2.4.2, but I don't think the log files format has changed. You say the logs are normal. Just to check, each line starts with a keyword in caps (START, INFO, SUCCESS, STATS, FINISH, ???) By far the most frequent in mine is "SUCCESS", but with only 2 disklist entries, you may have fewer (I'm guessing 4 total). Is that a decent description of your log file? If yes, I'd guess the problem is reporting, if no, I'd suspect logging. If the log file looks ok, does amreport -l -f generate a more reasonable report in , or is it the same report that was mailed to you after the amdump. If the latter, then probably something is wrong with your amreport. Send me a note with your log file attached and I'll see if the amreport's I have here (both 2.42 and 2.4.3) produce the same or different results as your amreport.

I had that problem ("Results missing") on one of my samba-based hosts when I had forgotten to add an entry in /etc/amandapass. Perhaps you are running into the same sort of problem?

Results Missing
Okay, I am strictly annoyed. I just added a new host to my backups. Its a debian system running amanda version 2.4.2p2 client. I tried using TAR, and I tried using DUMP. I am not getting TAPE out of space messages or any other error reports on amcheck. Amcheck comes out clean, no hosts problems, no tape problems. I have 17 file systems that I back up and it just keep messing up on this host. I can't put my finger on it, and its driving me nuts. Here is the message I get from Amanda when it emails me. /dev/hda1 RESULTS MISSING I can't tell what I need to look for in the logs to help me understand my problem. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Re: RESULTS MISSING
>What does "RESULTS MISSING" mean? Strictly speaking it means when amreport ran to generate the E-mail after planner and driver had done all the work, it could not find those clients/disks in the log file. Look at the corresponding log.MMDD.NN file. First, make sure it ends properly with a "FINISH driver ..." line. Then find all the lines related to one of the clients/disks that worked so you see what a normal run should look like. Then look for one of the "RESULTS MISSING" ones and see what's different. Next, look at the corresponding amdump.NN file for the "RESULTS MISSING" clients/disks. If planner says it got estimates from them, look for driver FILE-DUMP or PORT-DUMP commands to a dumper. Then track that particular dumper and see what it had to say after that. >Dick John R. Jackson, Technical Software Specialist, [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Hi, As of yesterday my AMANDA backups stopped running, and simply send me a mail report listings all my hosts with "RESULTS MISSING". I've reviewed sendsize.debug on each of the hosts and it looks like everything was working normal. I'm using the fully qualified hostname for the machine local to AMANDA. What other reasons are there for AMANDA to give up and report "RESULTS MISSING" for _EVERY_ host? I'm running Amanda version 2.4.1p1 on each host. Thank You, Rob

Actually, it was 8 KBytes -> 64 KBytes, but that only changed (I think) in 2.4.2. In 2.4.1p1 you still need to tweak the source. But I don't think that's what's happening to you.

Nice idea :-) No, "diskdev" is the harddisk (sig!) on the client that you want to backup. Ex. if you have 2 disks on client1 there are 2 entries: client1 /mountpoint1/of/disk1 dumptype client1 /mountpoint2/of/disk2 dumptype And possibly lots more for other clients. The tape device is set in your amanda.conf file and that's the only place where it is needed. Peter

Ex. if you have 2 disks on client1 there are 2 entries: client1 /mountpoint1/of/disk1 dumptype client1 /mountpoint2/of/disk2 dumptype And possibly lots more for other clients. The tape device is set in your amanda.conf file and that's the only place where it is needed. Peter

John, In disklist I was under the impression that you had to write the following. hostname diskdev dumptype [spindle [interface]] The diskdev that it is referring to is the tape device isn't it?

Why are you trying to back up /dev/nst0? Isn't that your tape device? It looks like your disklist has that in the first field instead of a disk or file system name. >Nathan John R.

Hi, I am running Redhat Linux 7.0, and have just installed Amanda. I run amcheck with no reports of errors, however when I attempt to run amdump, i get the following messages. paperbark /dev/nst0 lev 0 FAILED [ missing result for /dev/nst0 in paperbark response ] Has anyone seen this message before and if they have, does anyone know a way around it? Awaiting many helpfull responses :) Nathan
