Re: Permission problem + amrecover prob.

Hi, /home/pam is NFS mounted elsewhere and root was not allowed access. Giving root access fixed the problem. Thanks. Now, I'm trying to amrecover what was backed up on Medusa from Medusa and am getting amrecover: error reading tape: Connection reset by peer extract_list - child returned non-zer

I corrected the ~amanda .amandahosts access issue by changing amandas default home dir. I still get access Errors on the partitions for my newly added clients. I have tried using both hdg1 and /dev/hdg1 in the disk list. Amanda Backup Client Hosts Check ERROR: s

I've been struggling trying to get Amanda running on a FreeBSD 4.3-STABLE box with a HP SureStore 12000E 6-tape DAT changer for what seems like an eternity now. I first tried installing via the FreeBSD ports collection. That was version 2-4-2p2. I could not get any of the changer scripts that b

SLR 100, read while write capability

Hi, While browsing to find a cheap supplier for Imation SLR 100 cartridge (any hint welcome :) I found out that SLR drives are capable of read while write. I wonder if that capability is implemented in Amanda, could be implemented in Amanda, if it relies on the tape device... It could be a very

back up local host

Hello, Anyone know if it is possible to use amanda to backup a local host only and not go through the network card. We seem to be getting network time out errors and all the things we have tried from previous list suggestions (much thanks to all, btw) have not worked. thanks in advance, Davin

sporadic timeouts with sendbackup

Hello, I am trying to set up an Amanda backup for the first time, and I have the problem, that nearly always one of the filesystem backups fails. It does not always fail for the same host, but always for a different one. I have nothing about something like this in the FAQ, but Ryan Williams rep

Re: Overland AIT and chg-zd-mtx

I'm thinking it is becuase you don't have cleanslot and autocleancount set to something. I just set mine to "cleanslot=0" and "autocleancount=99" as I do not use the autoclean feature myself. All the variable cleanslot is doing is asking where the tape "might" be located. Since you're not us

Disklist and network units

I have just configured Amanda and i am having some problems: 1) How should i specify a device for backup? I want to make a backup of an ide disk partition under linux, so I guess the name of the device should be hdaX where X is the numbre of the partition, so the line will be something like this

Re: Listing tape content -- confusion

Joseph To interactively list the contents of a tape, pipe the output to the program you used during the backup. For example I use xfsdump on the SGI, so I will issue the command: amrestore -p $TAPE whatever (as you say) | xfsrestore -i - ./ This will allow me to browse the contents of the back
