Re: amrecover and indexes

2001-05-19 Thread Ian Prowell

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:

I got a successful backup summary from amdump.  Anything more that I can chase down?  
Let me know if there are any other details I should provide.

Thanks,
Ian Prowell

Read docs/INSTALL.  You should not have used GNU tar 1.13.

Amanda has an index for the host basecamp.sapient.com, but you used
sethost basecamp. Did you already try sethost basecamp.sapient.com?
Is that domain in your /etc/resolv.conf to be used? Or did you
./configure ... --enable-fqdn? (Don't know what this option really
means)



disk offline

2001-05-19 Thread Olivier Nicole

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

./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

The sethost seems to have done the trick.  Thanks for the help.  Now the important 
part of the backup and recover scheme is working.

 we seem to get a lot of 'not at start of tape' errors

It's not an error, just a warning that the tape section numbers that
follow do not reflect the actual tape section numbers on tape, because
you hadn't started amrestore at the beginning of the tape.  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.
