Possibly an xinetd problem? In all 3 sections of the amanda related
file(s) put in the /etc/xinetd.d directory, the line containing the
word 'disable' should be set to 'no'
I'm a bit ambiguous about the file count there because you can have
3 seperate files, or you can combine them into one, xinetd doesn't
seem to care. Here's mine:
---
# default = off
#
# description: Part of the Amanda server package
# This is the list of daemons & such it needs
service amanda
{
disable = no
socket_type = dgram
protocol= udp
wait= yes
user= amanda
group = disk
groups = yes
server = /usr/local/libexec/amandad
}
service amandaidx
{
disable = no
socket_type = stream
protocol= tcp
wait= no
user= amanda
group = disk
groups = yes
server = /usr/local/libexec/amindexd
}
service amidxtape
{
disable = no
socket_type = stream
protocol= tcp
wait= no
user= amanda
group = disk
groups = yes
server = /usr/local/libexec/amidxtaped
}
-
which is simply called 'amanda' but could in fact be named almost
anything since its presence and contents are apparently what count.

But why would it connect during "amcheck" but not during "amdump."? mike On Wed, 2003-05-28 at 10:28, Jon LaBadie wrote: > On Wed, May 28, 2003 at 10:20:53AM -0400, Michael Martinez wrote: > > I'm running amanda server and clients on redhat linux systems. > > > > My tape server is a machine called "vision.csrees.usda.gov".

why is this dump failure occuring despite amcheck is okay?
I'm running amanda server and clients on redhat linux systems. My tape server is a machine called "vision.csrees.usda.gov". It runs amanda 2.4.2p2 installed from rpm on Redhat 7.1. My new tape client is a machine called "plone" (listed below) which runs amanda 2.4.4 installed from source on Redhat 8.0. /usr/sbin/amcheck DailySet1 gives the green light for "plone", but /usr/sbin/amdump produces the following failure: FAILURE AND STRANGE DUMP SUMMARY: plone.csre /boot lev 0 FAILED [could not connect to plone.csrees.usda.gov] plone.csre / lev 0 FAILED [input: can't open: “ plone.csre / lev 0 FAILED [dump to tape failed] Why is the backup failing? -- Michael Martinez Linux System Administrator Marlaw Systems Technology Inc.
