2.4.3 amandad time outs PLEASE HELP!
Hi I have installed amanda 2.4.3 client on a Mac OS X box and have the same issue described below (in a post I made yesterday). amandad on the client waits for an ACK and receives a REQ instead. This happens twice and then the client amandad times out and exits while waiting for the ACK. I had amanda 2.4.2p2 previously working on both redhat linux (7.2 kernel 2.4.7-10) and this Mac OS X (10.2.2) box before the upgrade to 2.4.3. We also changed all our ip's on our network but I can't see where that is affecting amanda since the fresh install of 2.4.3. Another interesting note is that the backup runs successfully on the amanda server (redhat linux 7.3 kernel 2.4.19 with ac4 patch) when it is backed up (as a client). But our other 2 clients timeout waiting for ACKS they do not receive:( I have gone through all the obvious troubleshooting mentioned in http://amanda.sourceforge.net/fom-serve/cache/16.html and searched the archives to no avail. Anyone have any idea what is going wrong here?! PLEASE HELP! Is there some way to turn up the level of debugging amanda does to it's log files? Anything please! thanks t On Monday, January 6, 2003, at 06:03 PM, tammy wrote: Hi I upgraded to amanda 2.4.3 and now my client times out when running amcheck from the server.

It does the backup in one directory, then I use amanda to send all the partitions to tape ( but the one with the Oracle live tables). I think that the script can be found out there.

I replaced gnutar with hfstar last night on my OSX 10.1 testbed last night. The backup went smoothly for the same data I was using hfstar for. amrecover was able to restore the data smoothly as well. The volume in question is an HFS+ formated volume. Looks good to me. :) Thanks for the suggestion! ...david --- david raistrick [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.expita.com/nomime.html
