Re: amrecover and indexes
Well I went through the INSTALL doc and read it again. I changed to tar 1.13.19, but am getting the same message from amrecover. The indexes now look different through: gzip -dc /usr/adm/amanda/sherpa/index/basecamp.sapient.com/_/20010519_1.gz now produces output that looks like: ---snip--- /etc/PATH /etc/amandates /etc/inetd.conf /etc/oratab /etc/utmp /etc/utmpx /etc/opt/resmon/log/api.log /etc/opt/resmon/log/armmon.log /etc/opt/resmon/log/client.log /etc/opt/resmon/log/fc60mon.log /etc/opt/resmon/log/registrar.log /etc/opt/resmon/log/reslog.html ---snip--- It seems like amindex does not think that I have a dump for this file system: SECURITY USER rootbsd security: remote host basecamp.sapient.com user root local user amanda amandahosts security check passed200 Access OK DATE 2001-05-19200 Working date set to 2001-05-19.

disk offline
Hello, I have upgraded to tar 1.13.19 but when I try to activate amanda on a client machine, I get disk off line error: FAILURE AND STRANGE DUMP SUMMARY: oak/home/fidji lev 0 FAILED [disk /home/fidji offline on oak?] oak/home/hawai lev 0 FAILED [disk /home/hawai offline on oak?] I decided to do every dump using tar only. I noticed running amstatus that the estimate could not be get for the remote machines, so I wonder what is the tar command that is used to calculate the estimate. I will try it by hand and see what I can get from it. It seems that syslog reports nothing unusual on the client machine. Dump for the Amanda server, as well as for Windows client Samba'ed from the Amanda server is working great. Best regards, Olivier
Re: amrecover and indexes
./configure ... --enable-fqdn? (Don't know what this option really means) Means fully qualified domain name I think, so a host basecamp would always be renamed basecamp.sapient.com Olivier
Re: amrecover and indexes
The sethost seems to have done the trick. Thanks for the help. Now the important part of the backup and recover scheme is working. -Ian Prowell gzip -dc /usr/adm/amanda/sherpa/index/basecamp.sapient.com/_/20010519_1.gz [...] It seems like amindex does not think that I have a dump for this file system: SECURITY USER rootbsd security: remote host basecamp.sapient.com user root local user amanda amandahosts security check passed 200 Access OK DATE 2001-05-19 200 Working date set to 2001-05-19.

It has absolutely nothing to do with what is actually on the tape. It has to do with whether amrestore found a tape label in the beginning of the first section it read or not, and this tape label is only written by Amanda in the beginning of a tape. -- Alexandre Oliva Enjoy Guarana', see http://www.ic.unicamp.br/~oliva/ Red Hat GCC Developer aoliva@{cygnus.com, redhat.com} CS PhD student at IC-Unicampoliva@{lsd.ic.unicamp.br, gnu.org} Free Software Evangelist*Please* write to mailing lists, not to me
