Problems restarting zamanda windows service
I have a few Windows machines that I use Amanda to backup. One of these machines is giving me issues with the Zmanda service. It is crashing almost every night. Even stranger, when I try to restart it remotely, I get the following message: Control service request failed. [DOS code 0x0426] .. Failed to start service: ZWCService [WERR_OK] But when I RDP to it, and look in service manager, it appears to be running. Sugestions? -- A: Because it messes up the order in which people normally read text. Q: Why is top-posting such a bad thing? A: Top-posting. Q: What is the most annoying thing in e-mail?
exit-handling question
Running amanda-3.1.1 I am using the following to save on tape usage flush-threshold-dumped100 flush-threshold-scheduled 100 taperflush100 #taperflush0 autoflush yes If amdump does not meet the flush values it seems to return an exit code of 20 which is not really a problem but causes me problems when I check exit codes in my script. I see the amgtar EXIT-HANDLING parameter. EXIT-HANDLING List which exit status of gtar are good or bad. eg. "1=GOOD 2=BAD", exit status of 1 will produce a good backup, exit status of 2 will give an error. My question: If I include "EXIT-HANDLING" "20=GOOD" in the amgtar definition will amdump not return an exit code of 20 but all the other exit codes will still be returned? Thanks Robert _ Robert P.

Re: exit-handling question
Exit code to amgtar and amdump are not related. Look at the amdump man page for exit code of amdump, you can filter the bit (16) you don't care about.

I'd previously worked with my internal mail support team w/r/t auto-responses; they'd assured me that this wouldn't happen again, and apparently whatever fix that was applied did not help this time 'round. I do understand the frustration regarding away emails, and I'm upset that I've added to the problem. In an attempt to prevent further wrongdoing, I have attempted one final fix in my email setup to prevent auto-responses from being generated when triggered by my inbox receiving messages from Internet addresses. When next I go on vacation (the 16th), should my account generate yet another OoO message, I would greatly appreciate if someone would let me know (as kindly as possible, please...). I've never seen my own messages posted to the list (automated or otherwise), so I wouldn't otherwise know that it's happened again. I greatly benefit from having list messages sent to my work account, but if it's causing discord with the list membership, then I will gladly unsubscribe my work address and slog through on my home account.

ZWC exclude path wildcard support question
Does ZWC support wildcards in exclude path notations? If so, could someone provide an example of the proper syntax? "C:\\Documents\ and\ Settings\\*\\foo\\bar" does not work in my sandbox. (ie. This is intended to exclude "foo\bar" under every user's documents and settings directory.) Kind Regards, Chris

Not from internet adresses, but from known mailing lists, (this is the only place I'm sending this msg) they should somehow be whitelisted so as to not generate the auto reply. >When next I go on vacation (the 16th), should my account generate yet >another OoO message, I would greatly appreciate if someone would let me >know (as kindly as possible, please...).

They do not come to the list, Steve, they come to our private email addresses. How those are harvested from a list mailing I do not know, but they are. >I greatly benefit from having list messages sent to my work account, but >if it's causing discord with the list membership, then I will gladly >unsubscribe my work address and slog through on my home account. That isn't needed, as long as you don't mind fielding a few please stop messages from us. ;-) >Apologies and thanks in advance for your patience. >Steve > >This message and any attachments are intended only for the use of the > addressee and may contain information that is privileged and > confidential.
